Schwäbische Backerbsen 150 g

The best wheat flour is used for the wheat baked peas, which are processed into these crispy little balls. Just like croutons, they taste great as a soup garnish, as a topping for salads or simply on their own as a crispy snack. It is best to add them just before serving so that the baked peas remain nice and crispy. Baked peas have their origins in traditional Austrian and southern German cuisine, where they have been a popular addition to soups since the 19th century. They owe their typical pea-sized shape not to an ingredient, but to the way they are prepared - the name simply refers to their size.
