Snap Peas with Marinated Mushrooms
Christina Pirello
What You'll Need
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
2-3 tablespoons red wine vinegar (or brown rice vinegar)
1 teaspoon Suzanne’s Specialties brown rice syrup
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
4 ounces crimini mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 ounce shiitake mushrooms, soaked until soft, thinly sliced
2 sprigs fresh basil, leaves removed, shredded
Instructions
Make the marinade for the mushrooms. In a sauce pan, combine oil, vinegar, rice syrup, salt and pepper over low heat and cook, stirring, until warmed through, about 3 minutes. Turn off heat and stir in mushrooms. Set aside to marinate for 35 minutes.
Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook snap peas for about 2 minutes. Drain well and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking.
Make the salad by draining mushrooms, reserving marinade. Toss mushrooms with snap peas and basil. Stir in enough marinade to coat. Serve immediately.
Makes 4-5 servings.
