About Pea shoots

Pea shoots, harvested from young pea plants, are a delightful and nutrient-dense addition to any meal. Originating from East Asian cuisine, they are celebrated for their tender texture and delicate, sweet flavor. Packed with vitamins A, C, and K, they support immune health, skin vitality, and bone strength. Rich in antioxidants and phytonutrients, pea shoots help combat inflammation and promote overall wellness. They are also a good source of dietary fiber for digestive health, alongside essential minerals like iron and calcium. Low in calories but high in nutrients, pea shoots are an excellent choice for those seeking a healthy, plant-based ingredient. Commonly used in stir-fries, salads, and soups, they bring both culinary versatility and a refreshing crunch to dishes. However, individuals with oxalate sensitivities should moderate consumption, as they contain oxalates that may influence kidney health in some people. Overall, pea shoots are a flavorful and nourishing addition to the diet.
