Peas Lacto-Ferment - My First Batch

- 1 cup dried speckled peas
- 1/4 cup dried split peas
- 1 small onion diced
- 1/2 small clove of garlic minced
- small amount of fresh parsley minced
- 2 Tbsp sunflower seeds toasted and ground
- 1/2 Tbsp unrefined sea salt
- 2 Tbsp. of my #1 cucumber mix as a starter
- a squeeze of non-organic lemon
- 1/2 cup water in addition to what was left in the pot after cooking the peas
I soaked the speckled peas overnight, then added the split peas and cooked them together until there was only a little water left and they were tender.  I mashed the peas, then added the rest of the ingredients.  Mixed it all together and packed it into a liter mason jar, filled to about 1 1/2" from the rim.  I left it in the cupboard for about 10 hrs. and then refrigerated after I could see they were fermenting well...
