Served alone as a side or part of pastas or soups entrees, frozen peas are a simple and healthy addition to any meal. Bring 3-4 cups of water to a boil.
Using a medium saucepot, heat up the water to a rolling boil so that the surface of the water is constantly bubbling. Carefully pour the peas from the bag into the boiling water. Stir them gently and let the peas boil, uncovered. If peas are frozen together in large chunks, use a wooden spoon to break them apart, ensuring that they cook evenly. Remove the peas from heat after 2-3 minutes. Using a fork or slotted spoon, remove a pea and blow on it gently to cool it off.
