                  Fast boil them Shirl, add a pinch of bicarb to make them "mushy" then swirl in mint sauce and season to taste. Yorkshire delicacy (or maybe acquired taste?)!

                    The only dried peas I have found that don't germinate are the batchelors quick soak peas ...I think they have been part boiled and then re-dried.

                      Try picking them earlier for smaller peas?

                          The OH has just asked if i am growing peas oops forgot and as its my first year of growing anything was wondering if its too late to sow them now
                          Hope not: I've just, a few days ago, sown some more myself. The packet said it was still the sowing season. They're 'Onward', a maincrop variety: I'd guess it's too late for earlies.

                            Earlies are good to sow at the end of the season too as they mature quickly and you can get a late crop.

                              I have some Alderman growing from 1 batch sown in April.@nd batch sown last week.
                              Sowed some Meteor I got from Jackieand it's coming up nicely.

                              I know Alderman is climbing pea but what about Meteor?Does it need any support?

                                I find feltham first a good reliable early and late pea and any maincrop in between. This year it is greenshaft. Have flowers on the first batch sown back in Feb so wont be long to the first pickings.
