For quicker cooking soak the mix for 2 or 3 hours in double the volume of water to mix. Either rinse the soaked mix and cook in stock for 30 to 40 minutes or, for pilau, cook dry in a little oil for a few minutes before adding stock as required
Add soaked or cooked mix to stews. Try home-milling and adding to breads, savoury muffins & pastry.
Notes on Cooking Dried Pulses
Cooking times for dried pulses and mixes 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 Pilau Mix can be used immediately or frozen for later use.

British Chickpeas
Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains
£3.79
|
British chickpeas are back! These delicious and tender chickpeas are the harvest of the third year of British production. In the face of challenging summer weather, Henry Raker managed to harvest a crop on the light Breckland soils of Norfolk. Enjoy them! |
Norfolk farmer Henry Raker harvested the first ever field-scale crop of British chickpeas in 2019. This year's crop was harvested in September and has now been cleaned and packed. After a tricky summer in the field it'd be fair to say that the 2021 harvest chickpeas don't look as perfect as their imported cousins, but they taste fantastic.

Whole Wrinkled Peas
Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains
£1.99
| These wonderfully wrinkly peas have a distinctively sweet and grassy flavour. Their especially high levels of resistant starch provide excellent nourishment for our gut flora. |
Wrinkled peas are mostly grown for freezing but if not harvested in time they go to waste. Not these ones!
Whole wrinkled peas are superb in stews and curries, with a distinctively sweet, grassy flavour.
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!
Grown at Great Glemham Farms in Suffolk's Alde Valley.

Wrinkled peas are mostly grown for freezing but if not harvested in time they go to waste. Not these ones!
Tasty, versatile and easy to cook, split wrinkled peas don’t need to be soaked and add a sweet, grassy flavour to dips, soups, stews and salads. They make excellent dal too.

Fava Bean Chips, Organic
Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains
Sorry, not available right now
Fava Bean Chips cook just like Split Fava Beans, only a little faster as they're smaller pieces of bean. They cost less (cheap as chips?) than the larger Split Fava Beans but are just as tasty, versatile and easy to cook.
Use our Fava Bean Chips to make dal, falafel or hummus - or add a handful or more to soups, stews or curries. The beans get softer and softer the longer they're cooked.
