Storage Tips for Peas

Keep garden peas in the pod until just before you plan to use them to preserve their quality.  Always refrigerate peas in a perforated plastic bag to prevent their sugar from being converted into starch as well as maintain their nutrient content. Use within 5 days of harvest for best quality.

You may freeze peas but they will lose their crunchy quality. Shelled peas should be removed from the shell before freezing.
