Peas, peas, beautiful peas! Peas are my favorite vegetable
along with corn and lima beans. I always by frozen peas.
Fresh are rarely available and when they are you pay a lot
and get very little by the time you shell them. Canned peas
are, of course, disgusting!

If I had no other use for the microwave I would still
have one, if only to cook frozen peas. It is perfect.
No mess, not bother and they come out perfect every time.

I put them in a 1 qt. bowl, cover with plastic wrap and
heat 4 minutes on high. Then I remove them from the
microwave, stir them, add butter, recover, and microwave
another 3 minutes. They are perfectly done to my taste
everytime.

When I have a vegetable as a side dish I almost invariably
have peas. Corn I use more in soups, stews, and casseroles,
and on the cob. Limas I have more rarely because they don't
do well in the microwave so I have to cook them in a pot of
water on the stove and it's a PITA.
