Black Mountain Pea

Black peas are a particularly interesting variety of pea. They are known for their bean-like texture and intense flavour. In addition to their flavour, they are a rich source of protein, fibre, vitamins and minerals. An excellent solution for those looking to increase their intake of vegetable protein and reduce their meat consumption. They also help maintain a healthy digestive system and prevent chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease.

They are only grown in mountainous areas, with 50% of production coming from the El Berguedà region, although they are also grown in some areas of El Solsonès and La Garrotxa. They are also grown and well known in the Apulia region of Italy.
