  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to cook pea porridge without soaking in a pan? Split peas are best suited for preparing this porridge. In terms of beneficial properties, it is in no way inferior to the whole product, but it softens much faster. A small amount of baking soda will also help the peas boil. And one more recommendation on how to cook peas faster. Salt it at the end of cooking, about five minutes before the end.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Sort through the peas, removing debris and unnecessary impurities. Then rinse it under cool running water. Rinse thoroughly until the water is no longer cloudy and becomes clear.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Place the peas in a saucepan and cover with cold water. To cook the peas faster, take a thick-bottomed pan or cast iron. Place the pan on the stove over medium heat and bring the water to a boil. After this, reduce the heat and cook the peas for 40 minutes.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    After the water with peas boils, watch for the formation of foam. As a rule, if the peas have been pre-soaked for several hours, there will be almost no foam. But since we are preparing peas without soaking, a lot of foam will form.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    20-25 minutes after boiling, add soda to the peas. Do not add the entire volume at once, as strong foaming begins. And there is a risk that the liquid will spill out of the pan. Therefore, fall asleep in two approaches. After adding soda, cook the peas for another 15-20 minutes. To prevent the porridge from burning, stir it often. This is especially important at the end of cooking, since very little water will remain. 5 minutes before the end, salt the dish. The porridge is ready, bon appetit!
