Woodstock Organic Green Peas
What it is
These are whole green peas, carefully selected and flash-frozen at their peak freshness. They are certified organic, meaning they are grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. This method of preservation locks in the natural flavor and texture of the peas, making them a convenient and wholesome addition to any meal. They come in a resealable bag for easy storage and use.
How people cook with it
Frozen green peas are a versatile ingredient that can be used in a wide variety of dishes, both hot and cold.
- Added to soups and stews
- Mixed into pasta dishes
- Served as a simple side
- Blended into dips
To prepare, you can cook these peas directly from frozen. For a quick side dish, simply boil or steam them for a few minutes until tender. They can also be added to simmering dishes like casseroles, curries, or rice pilafs during the last few minutes of cooking to retain their bright color and slight bite. For a refreshing salad, thaw them under cold water and drain thoroughly before incorporating.

Compared to canned peas, these frozen organic peas offer a superior texture and a more vibrant, fresh-from-the-garden flavor.
