Malc and I are Northerners and we have some specialities north of Watford that Southerners could only dream of (actually Southerners are now all Northerners and Southerners have moved out to be scattered through Spain, France and Portugal)
One of these delicacies impossible to buy in the South or here in France is peas pudding. We used to buy it at the butchers Newboulds in Guisborough and whenever we went back to see parents we ordered Mum to go and buy pork and egg pie and peas pudding. We could never buy it in the South.
We have been able to buy the dried split peas but have just discovered a jarret de porc, number 2 on the pig chart/ shin of pork This afternoon I am boiling the jarret to get the stock to use with the dried peas. Two to three hours in a very low oven in a buttered dish should do the trick.
