Welcome to the Acre, where I share my gardening & foraging adventures, trying to use every bit of what I grow & forage to make, cook or preserve.
All tagged peas
One of the first dishes of the night was guacamole with shelling peas. It was incredible. The spicy and creamy guacamole was elevated by the perfect balance of fresh peas, adding texture and sweet contrast to the dip. Of all the food we enjoyed that night, I could not forget that simple dish.
For me, green beans are a garden staple, something you must grow if you are a backyard gardener. They are high yielding and just about everyone loves garden-fresh green beans. Peas on the other hand were a new vegetable to me when I first started gardening. I mean, of course I have had a bag of frozen peas from the grocery store, but I had never had a crisp, sweet fresh-from-the-pod pea. They are now a must grow for me, and are given a hefty space within my garden bed. So excited to share the pea and bean varieties I am trying out this year!
