The protein content of dried peas is about 20%, and the carbohydrate content is about 50%. Every 100g fresh pea contains 70g water, 7g protein, 3g dietary fiber, and other vitamins and minerals. Pea contains acid, gibberellin and plant lectin. Pea is rich in provitamin A, which can be converted into vitamin A in the body.
Characteristics of peas
The skin of dried yellow peas is white, and its shape varies with varieties, mostly spherical, oval, oblate, concave and shriveled. Dry yellow peas were soaked in cold water, and the skin thickness was not transparent. Rub off the skin by hand, and the peas are golden yellow.
Pea is self-pollinated and closed-pollinated, and is homozygous in the natural state, so it is a "stable" trait. In the process of pea hybridization, the number of chromosomes should be separated when forming germ cells. Parents' genes are passed on to their offspring through chromosomes and control their performance.
