Harvest and Preserving Tips
You can pick snap peas at any time, but they are tastiest when the pods still have some play around the peas when you squeeze the pods. If harvest exceeds immediate fresh use, you can freeze peas immediately after harvest to retain rich flavor. Blanch peas for 2 minutes in boiling water, drain, and then plunge into ice cold water for another 2 minutes. Drain again and loosely pack the peas into plastic freezer bags or containers. Use within 9 months for best quality. Peas can also be dried in a dehydrator and stored in a sealed canister for use in soups and stews.
