I'll tell you how to prepare green peas for the winter. First, the grains are blanched for several minutes in boiling water, then dried and placed in a container or bags for further storage in the freezer. There are several ways to freeze peas, but this is what I have been using for more than one year. Peas, even after long-term freezing, remain juicy, tender and pleasantly saturated green. The beauty of this recipe lies in the blanching. After all, thanks to this, special enzymes in the tissues of peas are destroyed - a guarantee that the grains do not darken and do not begin to taste bitter over time.

How to cook "Green Peas for the Winter"
Prepare the peas. Rinse the pods under cold water and remove all grains, taking only whole seeds. Pour cold water over the peas, put on the stove and after boiling, boil for no more than 1-2 minutes. Then pour the peas abruptly into ice water to stop the cooking process. Use a slotted spoon to remove the seeds from the water, spread them evenly on a clean towel and dry thoroughly. It is better to freeze completely dry peas, otherwise they will stick together and turn into a large ice lump. Pack dried beans in bags or any other container. Transfer the containers of peas to the freezer and use as needed. Happy blanks!
