Salad pea is the result of traditional breeding work, with more leaves than a normal pea plant. Salad pea originally comes from China. The plant loves spring; the seeds germinate with the first warm rays of the sun. In China, it is also one of the first fresh vegetables available.
Salad pea has the subtle taste of fresh peas, with a sweet, nutty aftertaste and a crunchy bite. It can be used in both hot and cold dishes; as an ingredient or as a garnish. Salad pea can be used whole or in parts.
