  1. Start by bringing a pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the frozen edamame and cook for about 3 minutes until they float.
  2. Drain the edamame and rinse them under cold water. Set aside.
  3. Wash the snap peas, pat dry, and thinly slice them on a diagonal. Combine with the blanched edamame, chopped cilantro, and scallions in a bowl.
  4. In a heat-proof bowl, combine toasted sesame seeds, honey, grated ginger, and chili crisp. Heat sesame oil until shimmering and pour over the mixture.
  5. Pour the dressing over the salad mixture, add a pinch of salt, and toss gently to coat. Serve immediately.
