I've prepared ful mesdames for years, soaking and pressure-cooking maple peas, and even bought them in tins imported from Egypt, which taste exactly the same as the ones I cook. Hard to tell the difference between the three, although the Egyptian ones may be consistently a touch browner in shade.
A variant (particularly popular around Bolton and Bury of Greater Manchester, and Preston, Lancashire) is parched peas – carlin peas (also known as maple peas or black peas) soaked and then boiled slowly for a long time; these peas are traditionally served with vinegar. Mushy peas have occasionally been referred to as "Yorkshire caviar." [3]
Lathyrus latifolius, the perennial peavine, perennial pea, broad-leaved everlasting-pea, [2] or just everlasting pea, is a robust, sprawling herbaceous perennial flowering plant in the pea family Fabaceae. It is native to Europe but is present on other continents, such as North America and Australia, [3] where it is most often seen along ...
The dried peas are soaked overnight and simmered to produce a type of mushy pea. Parching is a now-defunct term for long slow boiling. [2] The peas are field peas, left to dry on the plant, as distinct from garden peas, picked green for fresh consumption.
Affected plants include onion, apple, peas, French beans, cherry and raspberry, and symptoms include yellowing of leaves with smallest leaf veins remaining green to produce a ‘chequered’ effect. The plant may seem to grow away from the problem so that younger leaves may appear to be unaffected.
Vicia cracca (tufted vetch, cow vetch, bird vetch, blue vetch, boreal vetch), is a species of flowering plant in the pea and bean family Fabaceae. It is native to Europe and Asia. It occurs on other continents as an introduced species, including North America, where it is a common weed. It often occurs in disturbed habitats, including old ...
