Organic Yellow Split Peas were domesticated before 6000 BC in the East. They spread through Asia
and the Mediterranean. Both the Greek and Roman civilizations used dried peas as part of their
staple diet. Split peas are most commonly used in soups and stews. They can also be used to make
dips, spreads and stuffing and are primarily used to make dhal in India. NOTE: Before use, all
beans should be soaked in cold water overnight or for at least ten hours. Make sure you cover the
beans with a large volume of water because they will swell up considerably. When ready to cook,
discard the soaking water and briefly rinse the beans under running water. This process is important
as to reduce burping, flatulence and abdominal discomfort.
