With its origins in southwest Asia 10,000 years ago, the pea was one of the earliest cultivated food crops.

 

During the Middle Ages,peas provided the basic nutrition in the diet of Europe’s peasants.

Soon after Columbus, they found their way to North America. Throughout the world, emerging civilisations based their nutrition on wheat, soy, rice, and pea.

The nutritional and environmental benefits of the pea however, have unfortunately been largely forgotten in our modern world. pisane® is a convenient and cost-effective way of restoring these advantages to our diet.

 

 

Cosucra peas are locally grown and certified free of any genetic modification. The cracking of the pea and the separation of the components in our state-of-the-art Belgian facilities are based on a unique aqueous process using no organic solvents or hexane.

 

 

With no requirement for nitrogen fertiliser or irrigation, environment-wise the pea plant really is very “green” and because peas are grown locally, we can limit our carbon footprint.
