For what it's worth, my favourite veg of the peas and beans variety, in order of preference (and depending on the dish) are:

Mushy peas, butter beans, marrowfat peas, green beans, canalini beans...then the rest.

noy "has-beens" then?

[BWFC_Insane]

I have a confession. I hate mushy peas. And marrowfat peas. And just about any variation of pea other than garden peas!

I feel better now.

Love all bean varieties though!

This might interest...

Was served a starter in Spain once: "Guisantes" (which just means peas anyway) but it was just small tender peas in vinegar. Funnily enough, it was delicious.

I thought Marrowfat peas were mushy peas?

My wife is working tonight - not back until about 9.00 - so I've got a whore's pasta sauce on a slow simmer, put a little extra garlic and chilli in it - and just decanted a new (to me) Sicilian red - a syrah. Giving it a little half glass taste right now, and tis delicious. Beautiful, clean fruit to the nose, soft, medium to slightly full. Don't know whether it's available in supermarkets, but I got from Virgin wines... ca' di ponti shiraz. £6.99 and well worth it... and will be brilliant with the pasta...

[boltonboris]

Here's a tip for you mate.. There's a little place called 'Wasabi' on the tip of China Town. Similar to YO! Sushi, but much cheaper. Cracking little restaurant and a decent selection of Asian beers.
