Stuart Lyon Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 Depends where you buy them. Not sure if M&S do them but when I get their mange touts I usually have a few raw - they are great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coco Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 The time from picking to eating is the key thing with peas. The sugar in them quickly turns to starch. So the best peas are eaten in your own garden munching them as you pick them. A true taste of summer. It is possible that the time from picking to eating the ones in the shops has got longer in recent years (less local production and shipping around for packaging etc) - that could be why you are not enjoying them as much. Peas are incredibly easy to grow. 2 or 3 feet by a foot worth of soil will grow a nice crop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
