TRADITIONAL BRITISH MUSHY PEAS
Mushy peas are the traditional accompaniment to authentic British fish and chips. In the UK they would be traditionally made using marrowfat peas, but this version uses much more readily available dried split green peas.

Steps:
- Put the split green peas in a large pot with the baking soda and enough water to cover the peas four times over. Cover and allow to rehydrate in the fridge overnight.
- Drain the peas in a colander and rinse with cold water to remove any lingering baking soda.
- Return the peas to the pan and cover with cold water by 1/2-inch. Add some salt, bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer. During the simmering, discard any pea foam that forms on top using a slotted spoon. The peas are done cooking once they just lose their bite, 30 to 40 minutes. Overcooking results in soup, which isn't what we're going for.
- Remove from the heat, add the butter and stir to fully incorporate. Taste and add more salt if required.
- Serve immediately with fish and chips, or cool and store for up to 3 days.

MINTY MUSHY PEAS
This is a fantastic recipe that is so quick and so simple and uses our reliable friends the frozen peas, which work really well here. Great with fish, meat or even as a vegetarian dish with a big dollop of butter on top.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a pan and add the chopped onions, mint, and peas. Cover and leave for a few minutes to steam. Mash with a potato masher. You can do this with a food processor as well, just pulse it until smooth. Whether mashing or pulsing, when it's done add the butter and season very carefully, to taste.
BRITISH MUSHY PEAS (USING REGULAR SPRING PEAS)
Mushy peas are the quintessential side veg to accompany fish & chips in the UK. The traditional recipes use marrowfat peas, but more modern versions take advantage of the ordinary English spring peas you can find in any freezer case. This version was bright, refreshing, and while it does taste different from the marrowfat version, it is still quite good. This is also great served with with lamb. Adapted from Tom Aikens version, as seen on Market Kitchen.

Steps:
- Heat some water in a saucepan to boiling, then add the peas and cook for about 5 minutes until tender.
- Drain, but save about 200 ml of the cooking water.
- Puree in a blender ( or use a stick blender) with butter, mint leaves, salt & pepper to taste, and some of the reserved cooking liquid (adding as much or as little as you feel you need - you want it kind of pasty and gloppy, like loose mashed potatoes).
- Leave a few chunks. Test for seasoning and adjust as needed.
- Reheat gently in saucepan if needed.

MUSHY PEAS I
Mushy Peas are a great side dish with fried cod or salmon. Note: You can add more liquid (water or cream) depending how mushy you want your peas. Use low fat milk if you're calorie-conscious.
