Substitution choice will depend on the desired color, flavor, and functional properties in your final product.
What is the difference between peas and marrowfat peas?
Marrowfat peas are mature, dried green peas that have been allowed to fully ripen in the field, giving them a firmer texture and slightly sweeter flavor compared to regular garden or fresh peas. They are ideal for soups, stews, mushy peas, extruded snacks (like wasabi peas) and bulk processing, while fresh or garden peas are usually tender, sweet, and eaten cooked or raw.
Which peas are the healthiest?
Most dried peas are nutritionally similar, offering high fibre and plant protein. Blue, White, and Marrowfat peas all deliver good nutritional value, and the choice usually depends on colour, flavour profile, and processing performance.
