Pea sprouts contain a lot of water, which makes them taste very crisp and refreshing. It is suggested that they can be used for cold salad or stir-fried with fire after blanching, which is very delicious to eat.
However, it should be noted that it is necessary to avoid cooking for too long, whether it is cold salad after blanching or stir-frying with fire. Otherwise, if it takes too long, it will cause the loss of nutrients in pea sprouts, and it will also reduce the taste of pea sprouts.
