Pigeon

my coookieIs this the same as Pigeon pea or Toor dal? Badagnani 03:26, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is not that type or flavor of pea. Whitebox (talk) 07:19, 18 April 2012 (UTC) They may be part of an extended family, but the flavor is different, the green/yellow split pea that Europeans and Americans commonly know is milder (less bitter?) than the Toor common in India.

Cooking

I came to this article hoping to find out how long to cook them for - but there's nothing! Totnesmartin (hungry) 19:20, 2 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cook them until they taste good and/or get soft. Otherwise cookbooks or search engines may be your friend. Whitebox (talk) 00:28, 22 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge??

Merge with pea ?? FlagSteward 20:15, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's a different, more versatile preparation and different culturally than fresh peas. Whitebox (talk) 00:33, 22 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Let's split peas

So ... why are they split? Maikel (talk) 10:27, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have added: They have been mechanically split so that they will cook faster.

This is simply what I have been told. Please correct if you know better. Maikel (talk) 17:08, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What is the difference between Split Peas and ordinary garden peas? I find if I eat too many garden peas, they give me the runs. But split peas do not do that. Why? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.68.147.19 (talk) 18:01, 11 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Could be the freshness of the fiber content, also the skins of the peas can have more fiber, but the process of making split peas removes the skins. Whitebox (talk) 00:30, 22 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Difference between Split Peas and ordinary garden peas?

What is the difference between Split Peas and ordinary garden peas? I find when I eat garden peas, even cooked, they can give me the runs. But Split Pea soup does not do that. Why? Also, split peas help me sleep better. What is in them that does that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.68.147.19 (talk) 18:03, 11 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Pisum sativum... eh?

The start of this article defines the subject with reference to "Pisum sativum". Accurate as that definition may be, isn't that reference too confusing for the majority of readers? Can we just define it with reference to the good old common "pea"? WingedPig (talk) 13:35, 3 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A photo of the plant would be very useful, too.203.221.157.17 (talk) 03:07, 14 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nutrition box?

Why is the list of nutrition for split pea so different to the green pea listed under Pea? Does it really loose all those vitamins and minerals just in drying and losing its skin?

Merge?

It looks to be same as Dal. Isn't it?--Monfie (talk) 08:20, 23 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
