-
Marrowfat peas make the best mushy peas but are also great for dips, salads and even crunchy snacks. They pair very well with wasabi or horseradish.
Cooking instructions
Soak overnight, drain and rinse. Place in a pan with plenty of water, bring to boil, cover and simmer for 40 to 50 minutes until tender.
Our current batch of marrowfat peas may contain the occasional poppy seed head (these are nontoxic and can be easily removed during soaking)

Notes on Cooking Dried Pulses
Cooking times for dried pulses will be longer at higher altitudes and when cooking with hard water or older pulses.
Adding bicarbonate of soda during soaking and/or cooking will soften the pulses and reduce the cooking time.
Cooked pulses can be used immediately or frozen for later use.

The subtle pink colour of these peas is the result of the intensely orange cotyledon showing through the translucent white skin. When cooked you'll find that the rich yellow / orange colour shows through more.
Pink peas make superb hummus and can be substituted in recipes for other whole peas, especially whole yellow or blue peas, or for chickpeas. We look forward to hearing how you've cooked them!
