Green split peas

Dry pea halves are derived from ripe peas and have the highest calorie, carbohydrates, fats, and protein values out of all pea sorts. They are rich in fibers which regulate digestion, but also in vitamins and antioxidants which strengthen immunity and heart health. Preparation: before cooking, soak the pea halves in cold water to soften them. Drain, wash out and cook by your own recipe, with additional ingredients and spices. Peas are easily prepared as a stew and go well with various vegetables, legumes and meat.
