- 3 lb sugar snap peas, trimmed
- 12 ears corn, shucked
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 bunches scallions (white and pale green parts only), thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon black pepper
- Cook sugar snaps in 6 batches in an 8-quart pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 1 minute (return to a boil between batches). Transfer with a slotted spoon to a large bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking. Drain sugar snaps and pat dry with paper towels.
- Cook corn in 2 batches in same pot of boiling water until just tender, about 3 minutes (return to a boil between batches). Transfer to bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking. Drain corn and pat dry with paper towels. Cut off kernels and discard cobs.
- Just before serving, boil cream and scallions in a wide 6- to 8-quart heavy pot over high heat until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Add sugar snaps, corn, salt, and pepper and cook, tossing, until vegetables are coated and heated through, about 2 minutes.
