Product Information

This should take approx 30 minutes in the pressure cooker, 6 hours in the slow cooker (high) or 2.5 hours on the hob. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for about 1 to 1 ½ hours. Stir occasionally. Firm and flavourful, green lentils don’t break down easily with stirring or mixing, making them ideal for salads and pilafs. No (if you do want to soak them don't use baking soda to soak split peas it will turn them into a watery purée!)

Make your own baked beans, adding your favourite spices, onions, tomatoes and a little brown sugar.Once the water comes to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and let the peas simmer for 2 to 3 minutes. After 2 to 3 minutes, turn off the heat and cover the pot with a lid. Step 3: Let the Peas Soak

Cannellini Beans are a white kidney bean widely used in Italian cuisine. They're a basic ingredient in minestrone soup. Now add your peas so that the peas are only just covered and bring to the boil then reduce to simmer and cook for further 5-7 minutes.

Tell us what you think

Add seasonings such as bay leaves, onion, garlic or bouillon as you start cooking, but leave the acidic ones until near the end as they can impair the tenderness. Acidic foods include tomatoes, vinegar and lemon juice. Don’t forget to add a label with what it is, and on what date you put it in the freezer! How do I reheat this Pea and Ham Soup? The classic ingredient in baked beans, they have little flavour of their own but are brilliant at absorbing flavours and seasoning making them perfect for slow cooked dishes like cassoulet or bean soups. Another way to soften the skin of your peas and reduce soaking time is to add a pinch of baking soda to your soaking liquid.
