Description

Micro Pea Shoots 100g are 100g of micro pea shoots – the sweet, tender seedlings of the pea plant with a fresh, clean and delicately sweet flavour. Micro pea shoots are one of the most popular microgreens in restaurant cooking. As a result, they appear on the plates of the finest restaurants as a garnish, a salad base and a bed for composed dishes. Furthermore, at 100g this is a generous quantity for both garnishing and using as a salad ingredient. In particular, the coiled tendrils of micro pea shoots create a beautiful, natural and organic visual effect on the plate.

About Micro Pea Shoots 100g

We source our microherbs and garnishes from specialist growers using controlled indoor growing environments. In particular, we select every variety for its flavour intensity, visual impact and condition on delivery. As a result, the microherbs we deliver meet the standard demanded by the finest restaurant kitchens in Britain. Furthermore, microherbs are the seedling stage of familiar herbs and vegetables. We harvest them at 7 to 14 days when flavour and nutrients are at their absolute peak. However, their delicate size requires careful handling from grower to cook. In particular, microherbs must travel the shortest possible distance between harvest and kitchen to arrive in perfect condition. Additionally, we work only with growers who harvest to order rather than holding stock. That freshness is what makes the difference on the plate. That is why Micro Pea Shoots 100g from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning cooks.

Why Choose Micro Pea Shoots 100g From Us

Using microherbs well is about restraint and placement. In contrast to full-sized herbs, microherbs do not suit cooking. As a result, they go on at the very last moment as a finishing garnish rather than an ingredient. Furthermore, a small quantity applied with precision achieves far more than a large quantity scattered carelessly. However, their flavour is considerably more concentrated than the full-grown version might suggest. In particular, micro coriander, micro basil and micro roquette each carry an intensity that surprises most cooks the first time they use them. Moreover, the visual impact of microherbs is immediate and professional. Additionally, tweezers rather than fingers give the most precise placement. That precision is what distinguishes a professional finish from a home presentation.

How to Use Micro Pea Shoots 100g

To get the very best from Micro Pea Shoots 100g:

  • Use as a salad base for composed dishes where the sweet, fresh flavour and visual appeal both suit.
  • Scatter over pasta, risotto and grain dishes as a fresh, vibrant green garnish.
  • Furthermore, micro pea shoots make an outstanding addition to a spring salad alongside asparagus and broad beans.
  • Additionally, place on a tartare or ceviche where the sweet pea flavour provides a delicate contrast.

Perfect Pairings

Micro Pea Shoots 100g pairs beautifully with:

  • Spring vegetables – asparagus, broad beans and fresh peas for a seasonal combination
  • Pasta, risotto and grain dishes where fresh green colour is wanted
  • Goats cheese, ricotta and soft cheeses as a light salad companion
  • Fish, scallops and delicate seafood preparations

Storage: Keep refrigerated and use within 3 to 5 days of delivery. Store in the original punnet with the lid slightly ajar to allow airflow. However, do not wash microherbs until immediately before use. Moisture causes rapid deterioration. Furthermore, use as soon as possible after delivery for the finest flavour and condition. Delivered fresh, harvested to order and ready to garnish.

However you use it, Micro Pea Shoots 100g brings a freshness and quality to any dish that dried or older alternatives simply cannot provide. Moreover, cooking with genuinely fresh herbs and garnishes is one of the most immediate ways to raise the standard of any kitchen.
