Split Green Peas, Organic

£1.99

Cooking note: Our current crop of Organic Split Green Peas cook to a firmer finish than most, particularly if soaked and cooked in hard water. Soaking in cold water with 1tsp bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) per 1 litre water will help reduce the cooking time and result in more tender peas. If you prefer your split green peas to cook down to a very soft texture, we have an alternative crop of non-organic Split Green Peas available. |
Split Green Peas provide a rich colour and flavour to warming and hearty soups or dips.

Flamingo Peas, Whole
Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains
Sorry, not available right now
| Sorry, all our trial packs of Flamingo Peas have been snapped up now. But we'll have more available in the autumn when the first British harvest is in. Please sign up to our newsletter to be among the first to hear when they're ready to go. |
These amazing pink Flamingo Peas are an exciting new variety that's being grown in the UK for the very first time this year. We have a small amount of the trial harvest that we're offering to our customers in return for your feedback. If you haven't already, do read our blog post about the peas: In the Pink: our newly named Flamingo Peas
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.
We're still experimenting with ways of cooking these peas ourselves but they can be substituted in recipes for other whole peas, especially whole yellow or blue peas. We look forward to hearing how you've cooked them!
| Unlike all the other pulses, grains and seeds we sell these Flamingo Peas have not been grown in the UK. This is a small sample from the first harvest grown in the Czech Republic, mainly to provide seed that's being grown in the UK this year. |
