Medicinal Use:

• Weight Management: Peas are low fats but lots of protein, fiber and micro-nutrients
• Blood sugar regulation: High fiber slows and protein slows down how fast sugars are digested
• Heart disease prevention: The generous amounts of vitamin B1 and folate, B2, B3, and B6 reduce homocysteine levels which are a risk factor for heart disease

Culinary Use:

• It’s greens are at their best simply sauteed in a bit of olive oil or grapeseed oil
• Some browned garlic or shallots add a nice bit of sweetness, and a squirt of lemon juice at the end highlight the bright, clean flavor of it’s greens.
• It’s greens are also delicious added to soups, where their great leafy volume cooks down into lovely green ribbons
• Before cooking greens, look them over and cut or snap off any tough ends
• You can cut them up to make them easier to eat after they re cooked.
