How to enjoy

There are so many ways to include dried green peas in your diet! Whole peas can be sprouted, which increases their sweetness, vitamins and enzymes. When ground into a powder first, peas can be made into a split pea soup in about 3 minutes! Ground peas make an excellent thickener for other dishes and can be used as a binding agent in veggie patties. Add whole peas to soups and stews. Puree cooked peas with your favourite herbs and spices and serve as a side dish. To prepare peas, soak overnight or for at least 2 hours. When ready to cook, drain, rinse, and place in pot with plenty of fresh water. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer and cook for about an hour or an hour and a half until the peas are tender.
