Actually, Ras, I can't think of any source that I know that has peas and
pods eaten. They may be in some of my books and I haven't seen them, or
noticed them. With the long habit of eating the dried, shelled peas I
would have expected to read that people made a point of saying "...and
they ate the pea pods, too!" Pontormo only comments on the peas, not the
peapods. Doesn't prove anything, since he didn't paint himself eating
them.
I forget; have you posted documentation? I've got a nice bag of sugar
peas in the shell in the freezer, and I know I can get more, so I'm glad
to hear that they are a useable form.
As far as a cookery cut-off date, I would be as reluctant to give up
everything between 1450 and 1600 as I would to give up my Italian Ren
gowns. Yes, they are different. Not a surprise, in 1000 years and xxx
miles. Vive la difference! In fact, I even enjoy deLaVarenne.
Regards,
Allison
