Pea Shoots

Every man and his dog are publishing recipes which include pea shoots - seem to be the ingredient of the moment.

But where can you buy the little blighters?

I live in Nottingham - anyone seen any? jaynethepain (Wed 06:51 01/Jul/09)

Well this is the thing. I read that they come from one of these / a / country that is not under the EU - whatever laws for import, but try Holland & Barrets, as I think they do them. Check also with your local (if you have one) Asian Supermarket! Furthermore, put it into Goggle and you'll get more infor on same!

I've noticed they are in lots of recipes at the moment, and don't remember seeing them before, Are they the leaves of pea plants? Do you eat them raw like lettuce?

Yes puzzled, I believe so. Not much point puting them in recipes though if they are difficult to get. Anyway, will keep looking!

Sorry to be so long in answering Jayne, I am in East Anglia. We are not usually top of the list for new things, so if we have it, chances are, you might too. Good luck. Elly.
