2. Combine the peas and the remaining ingredients in a large pot. Pour in enough cold water to cover the peas by 1 inch. Heat to simmering and cook, covered, until the peas are tender but not mushy, about 1½ hours. Keep an eye on the peas while they are cooking and add more water to keep them covered if necessary.
