Method
- To make the dressing: whisk the miso, sherry, mirin, and sugar in a small pan. Put over a low heat and simmer for 7-10 mins, until thick and syrupy and reduced by about half. Take off the heat and cool.
- Add the beans to a pan of boiling salted water and cook for 2 mins. Add the peas and cook for 2-3 mins more. Drain and refresh under cold running water. Pat dry with kitchen paper.
- Put the veg into a large bowl. Add the walnuts, then stir in the dressing, adding the rice vinegar. Gently stir in the pea shoots. Serve straight away.
