I almost bought pea tips yesterday but settled on spinach, because it was familiar. I was steaming tit to serve under peanut chicken with rice noodles. Do they have a strong flavor? Should I try them next time? (they were also PRICEY!)
ReplyDeleteThe flavor of pea tips are sweet and mild. Because they grow so fast, they are really tender, without strong flavor.
ReplyDeleteIf your ever in Chinatown, you can find them there, probably cheaper than what you would pay in a regular grocery store or the farmer's market.
Your peanut chicken with rice noodles sounds really good!
Thanks for reading!!
