Named for Violet Beauregarde, these wavy, dark purple snow peas have a high anthocyanin content—the same antioxidant found in blueberries. Bred to bring more flavor (and more purple) to purple peas, these peas hold their vibrant color when cooked. Wait for small peas to develop in the pod to reach full flavor potential.
