Tips:
- Choose fresh peas: Look for peas that are bright green and plump. Avoid peas that are wilted or have brown spots.
- Use a good quality butter: Butter adds a rich flavor to the peas. Use unsalted butter so that you can control the amount of salt in the dish.
- Don't overcook the peas: Peas should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight crunch. Overcooked peas will become mushy.
- Season the peas to taste: Add salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or herbs.
- Serve the peas immediately: Buttered peas are best served hot. You can also serve them cold as a side dish or salad.
