These easy pickled peas have just the right combination of sweet and sour. The peas' sweetness plays off the tartness of the vinegars and the garlic and chile add lots of flavor and heat. These peas lend great bites of flavor to a simple salad or make an easy snack. I can't wait to see other uses and ideas people come up with for these tasty, tender little peas. - Stephanie
