How long do cooked peas last?

At room temperature: Cooked peas should not be left at room temperature for more than 2 hours, as they are susceptible to bacterial growth.

In the refrigerator: Cooked peas can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Make sure to store them in an airtight container to prevent them from drying out.

In the freezer: Cooked peas can be stored in the freezer for up to 6-8 months. To freeze cooked peas, blanch them in boiling water for 2 minutes, then cool them quickly in an ice bath. Drain the peas and pat them dry before freezing them in an airtight container. When you're ready to use them, thaw the peas in the refrigerator overnight or at room temperature for a few hours.

Tips for storing cooked peas:

- To prevent the peas from drying out, store them in an airtight container.

- If you're storing cooked peas in the freezer, be sure to blanch them first to preserve their color, flavor, and nutrients.

- Cooked peas can be reheated in the microwave or on the stovetop. If reheating them in the microwave, be sure to cover the peas with a damp paper towel to prevent them from drying out.
