How do you freeze them? Blanch and freeze or another method?

i've never done it, but i love frozen peas from
the store. eat them as a snack when still frozen
in the summer. out in the gardens they rarely
even make it in the house. will stand there and
eat them when picking. once in a great while i'll
have enough for a bowl.

I went on line today looking for a way to freeze the peas. One lady says
she doesn't blanch but just puts them on a bun pan and freezes them then
bags them for later use. I'm going to try it tomorrow. Will let you know
how it works out. Sure beats waiting for a ton of peas to pressure can.
