Method

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop snap peas into water; boil 2 minutes until bright-green and softened but still crisp. Drain, then immediately transfer to an ice-water bath in a medium bowl and let cool completely. Drain, then pat dry. Chop peas into thin slices and place in a large bowl.
  • Add sliced cabbage, radishes and green onions to bowl. Toss lightly.
  • Combine all ingredients for dressing in a blender and blend until smooth. Taste and add more miso as needed.
  • Drizzle dressing over salad, then toss lightly again. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve immediately.
