disagree - le "pois sucré" est le fruit d'un arbre tropicale


Explanation:
"mangetout peas, sugar peas or Chinese peas" - voir ci-dessous

pois sucre recette de petits pois dans lesquels on ajoute du sucre

The flat, edible-podded snow peas (a.k.a. mangetout peas, sugar peas or Chinese peas) are var. macrocarpon. Popular snow pea varieties are 'Mammoth Melting Sugar', which produces thick, succulent edible pods to 4.5" long; 'Oregon Sugar Pod', which is earlier and smaller; and 'Snowflake', which has shorter vines and can be grown without support. Snow peas have stringless pods.

neutral  Florence Bremond: mais cela désigne aussi de nombreuses autres espèces y compris la racine de réglisse
3 hrs
  -> d'accord pour le réglisse , mais ni le pois sucre ni le pois sucré ne sont ces petits pois verts tendres et plats que l'on mange avec la cosse - d'où le nom de mange-tout ou encore poids gourmands (doux)
