Albin is an early-maturing vegetable pea variety characterized by the absence of a hard layer in the pods. The plants have bushy growth and reach a medium height of about 45 cm. The harvest ripens 58-63 days after germination, allowing for fresh peas to be harvested quickly.
The pea pods reach a length of 15-16 cm and a width of 1-1.2 cm, each containing 6 to 8 seeds. The seeds are white, round, and large, making them appealing for various culinary purposes. Due to these characteristics, this variety is ideal for preparing first courses, appetizers, and home preserves.
Young pods are recommended to be used whole with the seeds, which allows for diversifying stews, side dishes, and freezer meals. This approach preserves the beneficial properties and flavor of the peas, making them a versatile ingredient in home cooking.
