Instructions
Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Blanch the sugar snap peas for exactly 60 seconds until bright neon green and tender-crisp. Drain immediately and shock in a bowl of ice water to lock in the color.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the rice vinegar and cashew butter until emulsified into a creamy, tangy dressing.
Gently pat the crab meat dry with paper towels to ensure it stays firm. Remove any stray cartilage.
In a serving bowl, combine the drained snap peas, crab meat, and half of the sliced scallions. Drizzle with the cashew-rice vinegar dressing and toss gently to coat—use your fingers or a silicone spatula to avoid breaking up the delicate crab lumps.
Plate the salad, then garnish with the remaining scallions and a sprinkle of chia seeds for a subtle, earthy crunch. Serve immediately while the peas are cool and fresh.
