My mother-in-law shared some advice with me on what phrase to watch out for when buying canned peas. The taste will depend on this. And she also drew my attention to the date of manufacture. (I never thought about it before).
We love green peas very much, I buy them often: in salads, in soup, and simply with meat it is delicious as a side dish, and even sometimes I make pancakes with it. (Many will not try it yet, they do not believe that it is tasty).
๐ก Sometimes you buy peas and not even cheap ones, but inside they are dry and tasteless! Downright disappointment. And well-known manufacturers, but still - peas are good only for soup, not for salad.
๐ And it happens that cheap peas are delicious too! Very much straight.
Recently, prices for canned food have increased, and so have peas. So you want to buy juicy, tasty, soft, and not spend money and get that in vain.
How to choose the right canned peas? ๐
There are peas on the can and at the very top. It is important!
โ 1) Made from brain varieties. "Young peas" may still be added
โ 2) Made from reconstituted peas or dried. They can prescribe it in the composition, and at the top just "Green Peas".
โ 3) Green peas. As a rule, if they do not immediately write specifics, then peas are tasteless. There is also a trick to the production date. I have painted it below.
That's where from the brain varieties - it means that canned peas are made from fresh peas and will be delicious and juicy! BUT, there is also a moment. Pay attention to the date of manufacture: it is better that it was June, July, the edge no later than August. At this time, the peas are young and tasty.
If the date is September, October or later, then there is a great chance that the peas will be old and not juicy, not very tasty. And if it's some December, but it is written that it is made from brain varieties, then it is hardly worth buying one.
BUT, if you take the 2nd option "from reconstituted peas", then 100% of the peas will not be tasty and will fit only for soup.
