Description
Stringless Sugar Snap Peas are similar in appearance to regular pea pods, only smaller and are exclusively grown by Mann Packing. Color will be a pale green, but, slightly darker than a snow pea. Pods are plump, edible, string-less, sweet and crunchy.
How to Store
Storage
– Store in the coldest area of the walk-in refrigerator. Kitchen heat will cause yellowing and the pea pods to lose their sweetness and flavor.
– Store in the original container to protect the product until prepped.
– Keep away from drafts from the cooler fan. Peas are highly susceptible to dehydration.
– Keep peas away from moisture. Moisture on the surface promotes decay.
– Peas are moderately susceptible to ethylene damage. Store away from ethylene-producing fruits such as apples, avocados, and melons where possible.
Handling
– Follow good rotation practices; first shipments received should be used first.
– The expected shelf life of snow peas is 4-5 days. Plan to rotate frequently to maintain quality.
– Never place the case or raw product on non-sanitized kitchen counter tops to help prevent the potential for cross contamination.
Preparation
– Prepare as needed. Try not to use a product from the previous day.
– Do not cut off the calyx with a knife. Calyx must be pulled to de-stem the pod.
– Peas are field packed. Rinse thoroughly prior to preparation.
– Store prepared product in the refrigerator.
