Goya Gandules (Dry Pigeon Peas) 14oz

Honoring my boriqua heritage with some arroz con gandules for the holidays. These were expensive but plumped up beautifully, tasted great. Not my favorite brand, but thos product was hard to find.

The perfect item to cook with. In the Caribbean’s this product is high on every cook’s shopping list. Pigeon Peas and Seasoned Rice, accompanied any time with Beef, Fish, Chicken, Duck, Pork whatever you want to do. It works perfectly every time. Enjoy cooking

I got so happy when I found this on Amazon. I was craving this for moths and my grocery stores didn’t have it. Taste as great as I remembered. Good size, not too big or too small.

Good for Nigerian 🇳🇬 fiofio/Agbugbu

It’s as advertised just like the one’s at home

Good overall. Next I buy more

I purchased these Pigeon Pea seeds for growing, rather than for eating. Gardeners such as myself often plant dried bean seeds from bags such as these. After soaking the seeds in rain water overnight, and sowing them about 1/2" deep in fresh, damp potting mix during warm weather, only about 10-20 seeds from the bag germinated, and those seedlings are very weak. The bag's date was 2024 (so, fresh enough), and the seeds looked good. I'm an experienced Florida grower and have planted many pigeon pea seeds and cared for many pigeon pea plants. This was disappointing, and unexpected. For planting, I would give this product 0 or 1 star. But, since this product seems intended for eating, and I didn't use it that way, I gave it 3 out of 5 stars. I was hoping to eat the pigeon peas from the plants these were going to grow though.

Reminds me of home in the Caribbean.
