Origin
Green peas are believed to have originated in the Mediterranean region and were first cultivated in ancient Egypt around 4800 BC. From there, they spread to other parts of Europe and Asia. Peas were introduced to North America by European settlers in the 17th century. Today, frozen green peas are widely produced and consumed worldwide. They are typically harvested at peak ripeness and immediately flash-frozen to preserve their flavor, texture, and nutritional value.
