A delightful twist on a classic pea salad, featuring fresh vegetables and a creamy dressing.
Prepare the peas by blanching them in boiling water for 2 minutes, then drain and cool.
Blanching the peas enhances their vibrant color and keeps them crisp.
Peel and grate the carrot into thin strips.
Use a box grater for uniform strips of carrot.
Finely chop the onion.
Rinse the chopped onion under cold water to reduce its sharpness.
In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, parsley, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Adjust the seasoning to your taste.
Mix the peas, carrot, and onion in a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss to coat evenly.
Ensure all ingredients are well coated with the dressing.
Chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Chilling allows the flavors to meld together for a better taste.
