• To Boil: Fill a large Dutch oven half full of water; add salt and bring to a rolling boil. Add shelled peas; bring back to a boil. Cook 6 minutes or until peas are tender. Drain well. Season and serve immediately.
• Note: If green peas are to be served cold in salads, drop cooked peas immediately into cold water. Cool completely. Drain well.
• Other Cooking Methods: Poêle; simmer; steam.
• Serving Suggestions: Green peas may be served with butter and seasonings to taste or with any of the following: Drawn Butter, French Dressing, Lemon- Butter Sauce, Oil and Lemon Sauce, or any sour cream or white sauce.
