The Proverbial Black-Eyed Pea
The Proverbial Black-Eyed Pea is an moderately easy dinner you can prepare in about 1 hour 4 minutes. Made with about 3 quarts of black-eyed peas, water to cover, salt, or more to taste and salt pork, ham hock or bacon ends, this recipe delivers authentic, satisfying flavors. A crowd-pleaser that never disappoints.
Shell the peas, using some of the tender snaps.
In a 3 quart pot, cover the peas with water and add salt.
Add your choice of meat.
(In an emergency when you're out of meat, peas may be seasoned with Lawry's seasoning salt.)
Bring to a boil and simmer about 2 or 2 1/2 hours.
Taste and correct seasonings.
This same method works for cream peas, crowder peas or purple-hulled peas. Serves 4 - 6.
