If she was like my mother, she probably served big, bright green, perfectly round, frozen peas, which were about as appetizing as a plateful of vitamin pills. (Never mind the trouble you had getting them on your fork!) And if you were like me, they probably wound up wadded in a napkin or fed to an obliging canine.

If only mom had known about good peas: snow peas as crisp as apples or snap peas as dulcet as honey. If only she had known that the secret to selecting shell peas is to ...
