peas 25/05/2006 02:41:29 By helen | My grandad always had a dish of peas ready for us when we arrived in glasgow from london. He would soak dry peas overnight no dye added an boil ham bones for 2 hours or so then add the peas an just leave it simmering for ages or until they were done. we use to add a bit of vinegar an salt ourselves...i don't know if this is what you had but we loved it ...helen |
