Field of Dreams

"Moringa seeds develop inside long pods produced by the moringa oleifera tree. These pods can reach a massive two feet in length, resulting in the moringa tree's common nickname in India as the 'drumstick tree'. Full of nutrients and easily digested, the moringa seed pods are harvested and eaten in a variety of ways. Immature seed pods are often steamed like green beans and served as a vegetable dish. Matured pods are harvested and shelled for their seeds, much like beans or peas. These mature moringa seeds are then steamed as a table vegetable or roasted for a nutritious snack. "
