How To Make pea........info.

  • Step 1
    CHOOSE: Pods that are cold, green, and not to fat (large peas are old and tough). You may find snow peas (almost pea less pods that are an Oriental specialty) or sugar snap peas, both of which are eaten shells and all, raw as well as cooked. Approximately 2 pounds of garden peas in the pod will feed 4 people (1 pound yields about 1 cup of peas). For snow peas and sugar snap peas,1 pound will serve 4 people.
  • Step 2
    STORE: Peas should be stored in the refrigerator and are best used within 3-5 days.
  • Step 3
    HOW YO USE: Shell peas can be cooked in their shells or shelled first and then steamed or boiled fo 5 minutes, or they can be cooked directly in a soup or stew. Snow peas and sugar snap peas take about 2-3 minutes of steaming or cooking.
