They look like some variety of microgreens, maybe micro cilantro?
 
Some sort of micro herb or green. Recipe says cilantro and scallions..
 
For me, I think pea shoots have a leaf shape that is different. But I don't know what these ones are.
 
Anyone know what store I would be able to find micro cilantro at?
 
agree with scotchef, i grow a lot of herbs and vegetables at home and those definitely look like sproutso f cilantro/coriander
 
I think it's just scallions. In Japanese food we peel off the layers, stack them up and then cut into slivers. They can be straight or curly, depending on the direction you cut in. Usually we use "Tokyo Negi" which is the size between a scallion and a leek.

Micro cilantro and negi stacked and cut on a bias.
If you put the negi in ice water they usually curl up like that.
