Melissa’s English Peas are common peas, also known as garden peas or green peas. Bright green, round and small in size, these peas will be tender and sweet when ripe. Melissa’s English Peas are surrounded by a large green bulging pod, similar to a sno pea, but much larger. Unlike sno peas, only the interior small round pea is eaten, as the pod is not edible. 

Melissa’s English Peas are delicious served with a bit of butter, seasonings and slightly steamed but can also be enjoyed chilled in a salad. The sweet flavors of Melissa’s English Peas compliment meat dishes, potatoes and are a great addition to casseroles.

Melissa’s English Peas should be picked when firm and bright in color without wilting. Fresh peas must be cooked and will store raw up to seven days.
