If you want to prepare delicious dishes based on peas, you need to make sure that the legume has acquired the desired degree of softness.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to enjoy the treat.
Experienced housewives try to buy the crushed version for such cases, as it becomes soft much faster. But there are other ways.
What do they consist of?
Soda
Don't worry about the peas having a strange taste or being unhealthy. The soda just helps the legume cook faster.
For a large saucepan, whose volume is from three to four liters, it is customary to take one small spoon of powder.
Blender
This method may seem quite original, so few people have heard of it. If you decide to cook porridge from peas, you can significantly simplify your task.
To do this, the required amount of legumes is placed in a blender and a relatively fine grind is achieved.
After such processing, you will spend only five minutes of your time on cooking.
