I bought these by mistake. On the receipt it say fresh garden peas. Do you take them out of their pods or just boil them as is?

I used to spend ages podding them with my grandma when I was little!

Taste great raw too!

But if you wanna eat the pod then do lol! a "special" kind of monge tous (dunno how you spell that but atleast I can cook it!!)

Thanks Groucho, I was having a bad day and you have made me laugh so much, cheers.
Just pod them and eat the peas, you can also use the pods as veg for making stock, if you're feling really adventurous!!!!
