Kath Various sites say yes :~) Never actually tried it myself, but now I know I will :~) Yes, they are delicious raw, in salads, for example. Or very lightly cooked in a wok, with a handful of sesame seeds and some fresh coriander! I've never grown these, are they easy, does anyone know? Grow just like any other pea. They are quite good treated as a second early pea. Read the packet info - some varieties are quite tall. I prefer them to mangetout, you can pick and cook them whole until the peas are fully developed but still tender. You still have a short period after that when the peas are OK but the pods are stringy so you can pod them but they are a bit harder to pod than ordinary peas. -- Rod My real address is rodtheweedygardeneratmyweedyisp Just remove the weedy bits and transplant the appropriate symbol at. |
