The experiment for DNA isolation is made by sereval steps to make possible the obtaining separate DNA for analysis. The first stage for this experiment is the grinding of the peas (in the question) with a blender to break the cells of the peas apart, that destabilizes the cellular structure at the cytoplasm level realising the cell content and making the nucleus where the DNA is contained more accessible.
