Yes it is. If you go chinatown, they call it snow pea somthing. I tried, it tasted right. I checked on internet,even there is little information about eating snow pea leaf. I did find something confirm that.
Snow pea is called chinese pea.

no, i think it's from sweet pea.

Many kind of pea will work. I guess snow pea is the best one.

I saw the seeds for both sweet pea and snow pea in 168, just don't know which one I should pick for 豆苗..I will try snow pea this year; if it is not, then I will try sweet pea next year

[AfterDie]

why not try both, then you can eat this year

" Snow pea shoots,
which are a Chinese delicacy known as dau miu are the growing tips and shoots of the snow pea plant, although if you grow common peas or sugar snap peas, their shoots can be used in the same manner. They are gloriously attractive and tender tendrils that are prized by the Chinese for their mild sweet taste and delicate texture. They are fabulous in stir-fried dishes as well as soups and salads. These are generally only available in specialist Asian greengrocers, so if you don't have one nearby, the only choice is to grow your own pea vine. "

今天挖了一上午地，大概有半分。Homedepot 买的大锄头，整得汗如雨下。一个月前
弄的小苗圃已经长得挤不下了：有扁豆，豌豆，西红柿，黄瓜；又从朋友那边弄了
丝瓜苗，小油菜，这回可是热闹了，准备一周内全都给移苗定植了。

查了农业大学的栽培教程，这些菜大约都没问题。
对了，还点了玉米和向日葵。

哈，刚翻地呀，那你的进度可比不上俺

俺这三个晚上，翻地，背陇，栽苗，点子。。一气呵成。。




累趴下了。。。
本来以为挺好玩的才租了块地，没想到小命差点没赔进去

[文枯娃]

累翻的时候就这么想：不用买健身器材了，从头到脚全方位训练啊。尤其重温了锄禾
日当午汗滴禾下土的滋味。。。

20年前就干这个，现在全忘了。。。

我的任务更艰巨，栽完菜还得弄fence。

打fence比翻地轻松多了

是snow bean吗？我可不是用它的种子种的，再canadiantire买了一包，后来在bulk barn买了称磅的豌豆来种，出来的就是豌豆苗，很好种，已经吃了一次了，呵呵！

I went to Li Feng last weekend, they called 豆苗 "snow pea tips"...so I tend to believe it is from snow pea.
