 == Name and History ==
-The name is Dutch; "blauw" means "blue," and "schokker" is something from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schokland Schokland] (could also refer to [http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schokker_(schip) a type of ship] or to the dialect of Schokland, but those seem less likely).  Also called Capucijners (after the Capuchin Monks), Purple-podded Peas, or Blue-podded Peas.  Grown all over Europe since the Middle Ages.
+The name is Dutch; "blauw" means "blue," and "schokker" is something from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schokland Schokland] in the Netherland (could also refer to [http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schokker_(schip) a type of ship] or to the dialect of Schokland, but those seem less likely).  Also called Capucijners (after the Capuchin Monks), Purple-podded Peas, or Blue-podded Peas.  Grown all over Europe since the Middle Ages.
 == Uses ==
 Primarily grown for the dry seed, though the plants are also quite ornamental, with large bicolor purple flowers and purple pea pods.  The very young pods can supposedly be eaten as snow peas though they tend to be fibrous.  The fresh seeds are quite starchy even when very young and are generally not liked.
