Notes
- To keep the sugar snap peas crunchy, don't cook them in water. That means no boiling or steaming them- Remove the "thread" from the pea pods (AKA trim sugar snap peas) for the best taste results. Its a tedious process, but, totally worth it.- Some grocery stores will sell the trimmed snap peas. If you find those stores, give the workers a huge hug! They deserve it. :)- Personally, I am not a fan of freezing the peas, but, if you have a huge supply that you can't use up in time, freeze them without cooking.- Growing sugar snap peas is, well, a 'snap'! :) Check out all the tips and tricks on growing them via Bonnie Plants and Frugal Family Home
