【How-to】How to cook peas in a pod

Bring water to a simmer over high heat, add the peas, and cover. Simmer until the peas are bright green, about 1 minute. Remove the lid from the skillet, and continue to simmer until almost all the water has evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Add olive oil and garlic, and salt and pepper to taste; mix well to combine.
