The ingredients for this vegan pasta dish

It doesn’t matter if you prefer fresh or frozen peas. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Fresh peas are best, of course, but they’re also more expensive and harder to find. Frozen peas aren’t quite as good, but they’re cheaper and easier to find. In the end you have to decide what is best for you.

short type of pasta works best for this dish. The pasta should be al dente and not overcooked. Use for example: clam pasta, penne, casarecce, macaroni, or like me orecchiette.

Do you love spicy dishes? Then shallots and garlic are just the right ingredients for you! These two ingredients give our creamy pea noodles with fresh mint a savory note and ensure an unforgettable taste experience. Garlic, with its spiciness, and sweet shallots are the perfect condiments for savory dishes like pasta. Both spices are not only tasty, but also very healthy. Garlic contains numerous vitamins and nutrients that strengthen and immunize the body. Shallots are also rich in vitamins and nutrients and have an antibacterial effect.

Fresh mint in refreshing pea sauce! This sauce is just perfect for a summer meal. The refreshing mint gives the sauce a very special taste that you are sure to love. So don’t wait any longer and enjoy this delicious dish soon!

Hemp seeds ensure a creamy consistency in our sauce. This gives the sauce a very special taste and makes it so unique. Hemp seeds are also very healthy and contain many important nutrients. These nutrients ensure that our sauce is very healthy and also keeps us full for a long time. If you don’t have hemp seeds on hand, you can also use tahini, almond butter or cashew as an alternative.

Miso paste is a wonderful condiment for sauces and sauces. It is very flattering and has a pleasant, sweet taste. In addition, it is an excellent source of vitamin B12 and iron. Miso paste is a Japanese seasoning paste made from soybeans, rice and salt. It has an umami flavor that makes it a popular choice for sauces and dressings. The paste is rich in nutrients and contains a number of health benefits.

Miso paste is a good source of B vitamins, which are important for nervous system health and red blood cell production. The paste also contains a number of minerals including calcium, copper and zinc. These nutrients are important for the health of bones, teeth and hair.

Miso paste can also help regulate blood sugar levels. The soybeans it contains are rich in fibre, which are digested slowly and thus keep the blood sugar level constant. The fiber can also help lower cholesterol levels.
