Frequently Asked Questions

1. Are split peas and lentils the same thing?

No, split peas and lentils are different legumes. Split peas come from dried peas that are split and peeled, while lentils are a separate category of pulse, often smaller and available in varieties like red, green, or brown.

2. Are split peas and chickpeas the same thing?

No, split peas and chickpeas are not the same. Chickpeas, also called garbanzo beans, have a round shape and firmer texture, while split peas are flat, round, and softer when cooked.

3. Do split peas need to be soaked?

According to Dookan, split peas usually don’t require soaking before cooking, unlike whole dried peas which benefit from an 8–10 hour soak. So you can cook split peas directly with good results.

4. Are split peas anti-inflammatory?

Dookan doesn’t explicitly label split peas as “anti-inflammatory,” but their high fiber and nutrient content suggests they support health and digestion, which can contribute to reduced inflammation over time.

5. Are split peas high in iron?

Yes, split peas are nutritionally rich. For example, Dookan’s TRS split yellow peas contain about 25 g of protein and 26 g of fiber per 500 g pack, indicating they’re a good source of iron and plant-based nutrition.

6. Do split peas spike blood sugar?

Split peas are low-glycemic and high in fiber, which helps slow digestion and prevent sharp rises in blood sugar. They’re a stable carbohydrate choice for blood sugar management.

7. How long can you keep uncooked split peas?

Uncooked split peas have a long shelf life when stored properly. Dookan’s products often have best-before dates up to two years out, such as TRS Split Yellow Peas (500 g) best before July 10, 2027.

8. How to store peas long term?

To store peas long term, keep them in airtight, cool, dry conditions. Dookan packages its legumes in sealed, tamper-proof, export-grade bags which help maintain freshness for months or even years.

9. Can dry split peas expire?

Yes, like all dried goods, split peas can expire. Check the best-before date printed on the package, for instance, Dookan’s TRS split yellow peas show “Best Before Date: 10 July 2027.” After that date, quality and flavor may decline.

10. Do split peas need to be soaked before cooking?

No, soaking is generally unnecessary for split peas. They cook quickly and evenly without soaking, unlike whole peas that require soaking to reduce cooking time and improve digestion.

11. How to make soup with split peas?

To make split pea soup, rinse your split peas, then simmer them in water or stock with aromatic veggies like onion, garlic, carrots, and seasonings (salt, pepper, herbs). Cook until peas soften and blend to a creamy texture, this method is ideal with the yellow split peas Dookan offers.

12. Where to buy split peas?

You can buy a range of split peas directly from Dookan. Options include TRS Split Yellow Peas (500 g), Fortune Red Lentils (500 g), and other varieties in single packs, bundles, or bulk, available online across Europe via Dookan’s website.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Are split peas and lentils the same thing?

No, split peas and lentils are distinct types of legumes. They come from different plants: split peas from dried field peas and lentils from the Lens genus. While both are high in protein and fiber, they differ in flavor, texture, and cooking time.

2. Are split peas and chickpeas the same thing?

No, split peas and chickpeas are different. Chickpeas (also called garbanzo beans) are round and beige, while split peas are smaller, flattened, and typically green or yellow.

3. Do split peas need to be soaked?

Split peas generally do not require soaking before cooking. Unlike larger dried beans, they soften and cook quickly without pre-soaking. However, soaking for 30 minutes can slightly reduce cooking time.

4. Are split peas anti‑inflammatory?

Yes, split peas contain anti‑inflammatory phytonutrients and are rich in fiber, which helps support gut health. These properties can contribute to reducing inflammation when included in a balanced diet.

5. Are split peas high in iron?

Split peas are considered a good source of plant‑based iron. Combined with vitamin C–rich foods (like tomatoes or citrus), their iron becomes more absorbable, making them a beneficial addition to iron‑supportive diets.

6. Do split peas spike blood sugar?

Split peas have a low glycemic index and are high in fiber and protein, which helps regulate blood sugar and prevents spikes, even when compared to starchy carbs.

7. How long can you keep uncooked split peas?

Uncooked split peas stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry cupboard remain good for about 1–2 years. They can still be safe after that but may lose some flavor and nutritional quality over time.

8. How to store peas long term?

For long-term storage, keep dried split peas in sealed, airtight containers, stored in a cool, dark pantry. If possible, use vacuum‑sealed or oxygen‑absorbing packaging to preserve freshness up to two years.

9. Can dry split peas expire?

While dry split peas don’t spoil easily, they can go stale. They don’t expire like fresh produce, but over time, they may lose aroma, flavor, or develop insect infestation if not stored properly. Check for off smells or pests.

10. Do split peas need to be soaked before cooking?

This is a repeat of earlier: soaking isn't necessary for split peas, though a short soak can slightly improve cooking time and digestibility.

11. How to make soup with split peas?

To make split pea soup, sauté aromatics (onion, garlic, carrot, celery), add rinsed split peas, cover with broth, and simmer for about 45 minutes until soft. Season with salt, pepper, herbs; you can also blend part for a creamy texture and stir in finished textures like ham or vegetables if desired.

12. Where to buy split peas?

You can buy split peas directly from Dookan’s Split Peas or Yellow Peas collections on their website. They offer options like TRS Split Yellow Peas in 500 g bags or bundles, delivered across Europe with secure packaging and fast shipping.
