If it had been simmering for 9 days, it might not have been spoiled.
We make it by taking green split peas and either a ham hock or some stew beef, an onion, a bay leaf, and some salt and just cooking it until the peas are soft enough to eat. The bag of split peas usually has directions - only I don't use nearly the amount of water they say, as I'm after an oatmeal-consistency porridge, not a broth-soup.


Hi - this side-dish discussion brings another peas poem and child's  handgame
to mind.....

Peas porridge hot
Peas porridge cold
Peas porridge in the pot
Nine days old

Some like it hot
Some like it cold
Some like it in the pot
Nine days old!

My opinion is - it would have spoiled by nine days! (hence the need for  mint
sauce? And how do you make it?? :>))
