DEHYDRATED PEAS

INGREDIENTS

  • Dehydrated Peas

METHOD

  1. Place either fresh blanched or frozen peas in a dehydrator and let it sit until marble hard.
  2. Blitz in a Vitamix until a powder.
  3. Season with a little bit of salt.

PEA PUREE

INGREDIENTS

  • Cream
  • Handful of pea pods
  • 2 ea. Garlic cloves
  • ½ Onion 

METHOD

  1. Cook down onion and garlic in heavy cream and reduce almost by half.
  2. Place in Vitamix and blend slowly dropping the pods in. Important: Pull strings off pods. I didn’t and spent 5 extra minutes cleaning the container.
  3. Drop the pods in and let emulsify until smooth. The heat from the cream and Vitamix will cook the peas.
