Crispy Baked Peas
They look like popcorn, but they're peas! It seems like magic, but it's actually a very simple recipe to make a savory snack at home, perfect for a snack or an aperitif: crispy baked peas. You can prepare them with either frozen peas (as I did) or canned ones, making sure to drain and dry them well. Another important trick is to let the peas cool after baking: they become truly crispy only after cooling. Let's prepare them together!

General Information
Storage notes
Crispy baked peas can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days, but I recommend enjoying them freshly made as they lose their crispiness over time.
