List of 3-letter Vegetables

    1

    Pea

    Pisum sativum

    Small, round green seeds in a pod — garden peas are one of the most ancient cultivated vegetables, providing a bright, sweet flavour that peaks when eaten minutes after picking; also available as mangetout (sugar snap) and split dried peas.

    2

    Yam

    Dioscorea spp.

    A starchy tuber from the genus Dioscorea, native to Africa and Asia, larger and drier than sweet potatoes — the actual yam, not the orange-fleshed American imposter.
