1 1/2 pounds sugar snap peas
Coarse salt

3 tablespoons chopped or snipped fresh chives

1. Place peas in pot and add 1-inch water. Add a little salt, a teaspoon of sugar and a couple of pats of butter to the pot. Bring water to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer. Cover and cook until peas are tender but still bright green, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat. Add chives. Transfer peas to a serving dish.
