About Chinese peas

Chinese peas, commonly known as snow peas, are a staple in Asian cuisine and feature prominently in stir-fries and salads. These crisp, flat, edible pods are mild in flavor and packed with essential nutrients, including vitamin C, vitamin K, dietary fiber, and antioxidants, supporting immune health, bone strength, and digestion. Low in calories yet high in nutrients, they make an excellent addition to weight-conscious meal plans. Chinese peas are also rich in phytonutrients, which may help combat inflammation and promote overall wellness. However, they contain moderate amounts of natural sugars, so portion control may be advised for individuals monitoring sugar intake. Their versatility in cooking and nutritional profile make Chinese peas a healthy, flavorful, and vibrant addition to a balanced diet.
