Pease pudding, sometimes known as pease pottage or pease porridge, is a baked vegetable product, which mainly consists of split yellow or Carlin peas, water, salt and spices, often cooked with a bacon or ham joint.

It is similar in texture to hummus, light yellow in color, with a mild taste. Pease pudding was traditionally produced in England, especially in the industrial North Eastern areas - although it is now widely available, often in butcher's shops (due to the bacon connection). It is often served with ham/bacon and stottie cakes.

Pease pudding is featured in a nursery rhyme, Pease Porridge Hot.

This was served in Pease Pottage village to convicts on their way from London to ports on the south coast.

Recipe for anyone who wants to give it a whirl :

Definately a North Eastern thing - Only ever had it once, in a golf club at Seaton Carew, Ham & Pease Pudding "fadge" (bread roll, stottie, barm cake, etc, etc to normal folk) It was actually quite nice, a little zingy like mustard or horseraddish.

But to shut the Southern Gastrophiles up, the fact their cuisine is sub standard is summed up in pie and mash - what is the "pie" actually made from? never had anything so vile in my life, and the "mash" is like dish water.

Meanwhile, Eccles cakes, Chorley cakes, Oat cakes, Cumberland sausage, Lincolnshire sausage, Bakewell tart, Black pudding yum-diddly-umptious, as Ned might say.
