Traditional Newfoundland side dish. This recipe came from the package for an authentic Newfoundland pudding bag. When I was a kid my grandmother made this with Sunday dinner and the taste brings back good childhood memories. note: prep and cook time does not include soaking overnight
Ingredients:
1 cup split peas
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon butter
Directions:
1. Wash peas, soak in water overnight, then rinse.
2. Place peas in pudding bag (can use thin towel or cloth).
3. Tie bag - allowing room for expansion
4. Cook in salted water for approximately 2 hours.
5. Remove bag from pot and squeeze out excess water
6. Remove peas from bag and mash with butter, salt and pepper.
7. You can press the mixture into a curved cereal bowl, then turn over and tap the bottom to remove. This will give the pease pudding a nice domed shape.
