What do you all do with your garden peas? Do you shuck them and store them? Eat them all fresh? Preserve them? I have a ton that I harvested today. I am pretty sure I will eat all of these fresh, but since there will be more in the future, I was thinking another option might me nice.

we grow sugar snap peas so they are all eaten before they even make them in the house. |

Alee, my peas are done now, but I when I ate some fresh, then froze some, ate some fresh, then froze some. I put them up in lb. bags in the freezer. We had a surpise guest over a few nights ago after I had planned dinner for two, and I pulled out those frozen peas and steamed them. Boy howdy were they to die for--even after being frozen!!!! Our dinner guest is british, and he could not get over those peas!

I freeze my peas. You could try drying some, to use in soups later. Michele |

I never seem to get a WHOLE lot more than we can eat fresh...I love peas and so do all the kids. Husband..not so much..but when I do have extras I flash freeze them and then add to my mixed veggies that I can at the end of the season. Nothing like fresh peas cooked and then served with butter and a grating of fresh nutmeg..yum!!
My pea plants are still small..no harvesting yet..I planted them way late. I planted bush peas this year..for the first time. I hope I at least get SOME!!
