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.
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.

I've spent years looking for a worthwhile healthy alternative to rice both in Europe and Asia. All the time it was lurking in East Anglia at Hodmedods waiting to be discovered. It's now a cupboard staple. More flavour than commercial rice, more fibre, too. Emmer and lentils! Who knew! Great stuff!
A must for every soup fan. Filling and tasty.

Excellent, very professional and you are kept up to date about your order, will use them again
This is a very nice product - delicious, subtle and very versatile. It's a good value too. I highly recommend it.
I often find fava beans a bit bitter (is it just me?!) so have previously just used them in quite heavily flavoured dishes. Not these ones though - no bitterness at all - just really tasty. I often eat them just with a bit of seasoning and drizzle of oil!
This unusual flour is something everyone should try. I use it in sourdough and yeasted bread, and it makes an unusually dense dough that is actually rather textured and nice to stretch and fold even when using at 50:50 with white. It has a very nice flavour with a long prove - and so far has never over-proved on me by going liquidy. Aside from its unusual flavour and appearance, I have achieved a good firm and edible crust that doesn't turn into nasty shards
