Sweet and crunchy sugar snap peas freshly picked from the plant are a real delicacy and taste far better than any you will get in stores. The crops are quick and simple to grow in the garden and you can get a great harvest for all your culinary uses - or to simply eat straight from the plant.
Sugar snap peas have smooth and rounded edible pods and the pods, complete with the peas inside, are eaten whole, either cooked or raw. They want to be harvested at the peak of their ripeness when they are sweet and juicy, as they can get tough and stringy if left on the plant too long.
