Pea
Peas are a type of vegetable that grows in pods and is commonly found in the legume family. They are a plant-based ingredient that is packed with nutrients like protein, fibre, and vitamins. Peas are often used in cooking and food production for their versatility and health benefits.
To produce pea ingredients, the peas are typically harvested when they are still young and tender. They are then processed by drying, milling, or grinding into various forms like pea flour, pea protein isolate, or pea fibre. These pea-derived ingredients can then be added to a wide range of food products to boost their nutritional content and add flavour, texture, or other desirable qualities.
Pea ingredients can be found in a variety of food items, ranging from plant-based burgers and protein bars to soups and baked goods. They are commonly used to enhance the protein content of vegetarian or vegan products, improve the texture of foods like pasta or bread, and add a subtle sweetness to certain recipes. Pea ingredients also offer a sustainable and plant-based alternative to animal-derived ingredients in many food products.
