Josh,
Don’t be afraid to experiment with fresh new herbs and seasonings. Mint would be great with peas, but you can also try things such as tarragon, ginger, sage and basil. Also, try using a stock, such as chicken or vegetable to cook them with, you can even accompany them with a curried quinoa or rice pasta. Your immagination is the limit to what you can use to spice up the ordinary peas.

Janessa,
When adding the oil you need to go very slow, and at times I would even stop adding the oil just for a few seconds to make sure the oil is incorporating. When making a tomato sauce try using the white part of leeks and some shallots, they are in the same family as onions but the protein structure is different.
Hi Chef,
Do you any tip on cooking peas to make them more exciting one of my friends told me to add mint?

Hi, I tried your mayo recipe but it never thickened it stayed super soupy, what should I try?
Also do you have a recipe for tomato sauce, I can’t have onions and they are in every pasta sauce I’ve seen
Thanks
