How to dry peas at home for the winter.
Dried green peas are prepared from green brain varieties. Harvesting peas begins with removing them from the pods.
Then, the peas are dipped in hot water and blanched for about three minutes.
The peas removed from the water are dried by pouring them onto a clean cloth or towel.
Next, the peas are laid out in one layer on a sheet, which is sent to the oven. The oven should only be heated to 45 or 50 degrees.
After one hour of drying, the sheet with peas is removed from the oven for one hour of cooling.
The next step is to place the sheet back in the oven for one hour and cool again. It is necessary to do so many such passes so that the peas become almost dry.
The end of drying should take place at a temperature of 55 or 69 degrees. At this time, the peas should completely dry.
Properly dried green peas have a uniform dark green color and a pronounced uneven surface. Dried peas should be stored in canvas bags, paper bags or boxes.
