Uses and Opinions
Generally touted as a snow pea, but I think that's nuts. Despite the name the pods are not sweet at all, and have a pretty unpleasant flavor to boot. However, many seed companies and individuals seem to love them, so they probably just need to be picked when very young. The pea seeds are quite starchy and not also not sweet at all, even when small.
