Botanically, it's the same species as the snap peas and shelling peas already described in our pages (\u003cem\u003ePisum sativum\u003c\/em\u003e), simply a variety selected for drying and long storage rather than fresh eating. The light yellow-green colour distinguishes these peas from the fresh-grown greens. It's also one of the eight founder crops of Neolithic agriculture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree uses as a sprout or microgreen:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShort sprouts (3-5 days, with a 5 mm to 1 cm radicle): mild fresh flavour, crunchy texture, used like chickpea sprouts but RAW with no concern (no active lectins requiring cooking); excellent in salads or grain bowls, and particularly loved in Indian \u003cem\u003ekichari\u003c\/em\u003e and certain Asian soups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTender pea shoots (10-14 days, 8-15 cm tall): one of the most beautiful microgreens in the world — long green stems topped with young leaves, tendrils, and sometimes tiny white flowers; pure fresh-pea sweetness that transcends any canned pea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn authentic Asian delicacy: the Cantonese call them \u003cem\u003edau miu\u003c\/em\u003e (豆苗) and pay top dollar for them at the restaurant; briefly wok-stirred with garlic and sesame oil, they become a dish on their own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBonus: if you cut the pea shoots just above the collar (where the cotyledons detached), the plant regrows for a more modest but real second harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoaking: 8-12 hours in warm water before sowing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGermination time: 2-3 days.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSprout harvest: 3-5 days after soaking begins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePea shoot harvest: 10-14 days after sowing (8-15 cm tall).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYield: about 1 cup of dried peas produces a 20 × 20 cm tray of pea shoots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest uses: sprouts in salads, \u003cem\u003epea shoots\u003c\/em\u003e in Cantonese-style stir-fry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Joual Vert","offers":[{"title":"100g","offer_id":39261220503724,"sku":"GC-O-PEAYEL-100G","price":6.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g","offer_id":39261220536492,"sku":"GC-O-PEAYEL-500G","price":24.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg","offer_id":39261220569260,"sku":"GC-O-PEAYEL-1KG","price":39.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0532\/1388\/8684\/products\/peayellowm.jpg?v=1698701472","url":"https:\/\/joualvert.ca\/en\/products\/yellow-pea-sprouting-microgreen-seeds","provider":"Joual Vert","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
