Sugar snap peas are best stored in the refrigerator to maintain their crispness and flavor. Place them in a perforated plastic bag or a reusable container lined with a paper towel to absorb excess moisture. Avoid washing them until just before use. Properly stored, they can last for up to a week. For longer storage, consider blanching and freezing them; however, freezing can alter their texture.
