FAQ
What temperature for sous vide peas?
185°F (85°C) for 12-15 minutes — sweet, bright, and barely cooked.
Fresh or frozen peas?
Both work. Frozen are already blanched, so they need the shorter end of the time range.
How do I make pea puree?
Blend cooked peas with their butter, a splash of cream or stock, and salt until silky — pass through a sieve for restaurant smoothness.
