FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
How long do boiled salted frozen peas last in the fridge?
Once boiled, they should be stored in an airtight container and consumed within 3 to 4 days for best quality.
Can I freeze these peas again after boiling?
Yes, you can refreeze them, but the texture will become significantly softer and potentially mushy upon second thawing.
Do I need to add more salt when cooking with these?
Usually no. Since these are already salted, it is best to taste your dish first to avoid over-salting.
What is the best way to reheat them?
Microwave them for 30-60 seconds with a teaspoon of water or toss them into a hot pan for 2 minutes.
Are these peas as healthy as fresh peas?
They are very similar nutritionally, though boiling and salting increases sodium and slightly reduces water-soluble vitamins like Vitamin C.
What can I substitute for boiled salted frozen peas?
You can use canned peas (drained and rinsed) or fresh peas that have been blanched in salted water.
How do I know if they have gone bad?
Look for a slimy texture, a sour or off-smell, or any visible mold growth.
Are these suitable for a low-sodium diet?
No, because they are pre-salted. For a low-sodium diet, choose plain frozen peas without added salt.
Can I eat these cold?
Yes, since they are already boiled, they are safe to eat cold in salads or as a snack after thawing.
Why are my peas shriveled after reheating?
This usually happens due to overcooking or reheating at too high a temperature for too long, which causes moisture loss.
