Pease pudding
From Freepedia
Pease pudding is sometimes also known as pease pottage or pease porridge. It is a baked vegetable product, which mainly consists of split yellow or Carlin peas, water, salt and spices.
It is similar in texture to hummus, light green in colour, with a mild taste. Pease pudding was traditionally produced in England, especially in the industrial Northern areas - although it is now widely available, often sold somewhat confusingly in butcher's shops. It is often served with ham and stottie cakes.
Pease pudding is also mentioned in a nursery rhyme. The words are:
Pease pudding hot,
Pease pudding cold,
Pease pudding in the pot
Nine days old;
Some like it hot,
Some like it cold,
Some like it in the pot,
Nine days old.
