I am with Art on this.
Frozen are good, mushy with fish.
I grow mangetout in a couple of contaiers and use them in stir fries.

I sometimes add fresh mint to the peas whilst they are cooking. Or sometimes, l add a little sugar to make them sweet.

Late at night I have been known to open a can, heat them in the microwave and put a pat of butter on top with pepper.Better snack for me than something sweet at times.
I like the sound of your little snack with the microwaved peas with butter and pepper!
I usually boil or steam my peas.

Even growing them, mice seem to sabotage a good harvest.
Do you have a favourite brand?
None of that foreign rubbish here.
