2 teaspoons (10 mL) finely chopped, peeled fresh ginger
3 cups (750 mL) coarsely shredded napa (Chinese) cabbage
1 cup (250 mL) frozen peas, thawed
6 scallions, cut into 2-inch lengths and thinly sliced lengthwise

1. In large pot of lightly salted boiling water, cook linguine until tender, following package directions. Drain and cool under cold running water. Reserve.
