Fresh garden peas are a different variety eaten young. Split peas have a much more concentrated, starchy, earthy flavour than sweet fresh peas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do they differ from yellow split peas?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGreen split peas have a more robust, earthier flavour; yellow split peas are milder and slightly sweeter. Both make excellent soups — yellow is more mild and creamy, green is more robust and complex.
