    Peas are not only delicious, but also nutritious, so they are one of the most popular legume vegetables Peas, originally grown in the Himalayan plain of northwest India, are now widely grown in temperate and semi tropical regions around the world From the botanical point of view, pea is an annual herbaceous vine belonging to the Leguminosae family Peas grow fast and need grid support It is suitable for growing in sandy soil with good drainage, sufficient water and cool weather Short peas are harvested in late winter and early spring Each pod is about 2-3 inches long, with 2-10 light green edible seeds Peas are winter crops From December to next April, fresh peas are usually available in the market But dried peas and other pea products are available all year round There is no doubt that you should buy fresh pea pods that are full and heavy with your hands; avoid wrinkles on the outer layer, or overly mature and yellowish pods It's best to eat immediately after harvesting fresh peas, because the sugar will soon turn into starch If they need to be stored, they should be placed in a vegetable container in a refrigerator, set at a high relative humidity, for a maximum of 2-3 days However, frozen seeds can be stored safely for several months.
