About Snap pea

Snap peas, also known as sugar snap peas, are a crisp, edible pod vegetable popular in many cuisines, especially those of East Asia and the Mediterranean. These vibrant green legumes are a hybrid of garden peas and snow peas, offering a slightly sweet flavor with a satisfying crunch. Nutritionally, snap peas are low in calories and high in fiber, making them an excellent choice for digestive health and weight management. They are packed with vitamins like vitamin C for immune support, vitamin K for bone health, and a range of antioxidants that aid in reducing inflammation. Snap peas also provide minerals such as magnesium and potassium, which are important for heart health. Since they are low in fat and cholesterol, they pair well with balanced meals or as a nutritious snack. Avoid overcooking to preserve their nutrients and fresh texture.
