I know this may sound unreasonable but I really expected someone to tap me on the shoulder and point out something that I should have known instead of embarrassingly going throughout life being unaware of something so obvious.

Of course I am talking about sugar snap peas. What the actual fuck, they are so good! I really wish I hadn’t wasted so much of my life not knowing about them. It’s ok, I am a girl who can let go and move forward and I will show you have forgiven you all are by sharing this amazeball recipe.

This recipe is so quick to prepare but has such a big flavour explosion that you won’t be able to sit down to eat it, but please try, as it is bad manners not to.

So, sugar snap peas are a species of peas where you can bung the the whole pod in your mouth without shelling. They are a legume and are brothers of another mother of the snow pea.
