Peas, Tinned

Put the tin into cold water before opening, bring the water to a boil, and let it boil for five minutes. Cut open the tin at top, pour out the liquor, and serve the peas with a few sprigs of fresh mint that have been boiled for two or three minutes. Add half a tea-spoonful of icing sugar, a salt-spoonful of salt, and a good-sized piece of butter.
