Pea Recipes FAQs
How to cook peas?
If you have fresh peas, shell them from their pods. Next, put a pan of water on to boil. Put your peas into the pan once it is boiling, reduce the heat and cover. Strain in a colander when they’re cooked.
How long do you boil peas for?
Whether you are cooking fresh or frozen peas, they only need to be exposed to boiling water for three minutes to cook through.
Is it better to steam or boil peas?
Steaming helps to preserve the nutrition in peas, and this method doesn’t take much longer than boiling. However, neither method is better than the other.
Should peas be soaked before cooking?
Dried peas, like split peas, benefit from being soaked, reducing the cooking time. However, unlike some other pulses, you don’t need to soak them beforehand.
Do frozen peas need to be boiled?
No, you can simply place frozen peas in warm water to heat them up. The water doesn’t even need to be boiling. Microwaving them is another easy way to cook frozen peas.
