Storage
Peas and green beans should be stored in the refrigerator, preferably in a perforated bag or an open container. They are best consumed within a few days.
Prep Tip
Green beans only need to be trimmed from the stem end, not both ends. Try snapping them off for ease!
Seasonality
Peas are typically available in the spring and early summer months, while green beans are more abundant in the summer and early fall.
