Peas can look good for sandwiches, toast or stir-fries, tossed on top of salads, breads and similar dishes. Select peas that are fresh and have holes in the outer shell. These peas will allow you to flake off some of the most delicate bits of snow. The pods should be able to flake off the seed. Avoid peas that have a dull or sugary taste, which will never show on your snow peas. Choose pea peas that have a color similar to your country-native blue peas. Avoid snow peas that are swollen or larger than 3 inches (7.6 cm) long--they tend to be tough. Also avoid snow peas that are dry along the edges, have yellow spots, or are wrinkled.
