Sea Isle Gungo Peas in a 500g bag are dried pigeon peas (gungo) for soaking and cooking — essential for Jamaican rice and gungo peas, the Christmas variation on rice and peas that uses gungo instead of red kidney beans. Gungo peas have a slightly nuttier, sweeter flavour than red kidney beans, and are particularly associated with Caribbean Christmas tables across the diaspora. Soak overnight, then simmer until tender. The 500g bag is the everyday family size. Sea Isle is a Caribbean food brand familiar across UK Caribbean grocery shelves.
