About Wrinkled pea

Wrinkled pea is a pea type characterized by seeds with a visibly puckered surface when mature and dry. The dried peas are generally green or yellow and have a firm, starchy texture before cooking. Once cooked, they soften and have the familiar mild, sweet, earthy flavour of peas.

They may be sold dried, split, or in other forms, and are used in soups, purées, and other cooked preparations. Wrinkled peas are not the same product as fresh green peas, and seed colour and processing can vary. The specific form should be identified when comparing nutrition or cooking characteristics.
