Description

Black-Eyed Peas for a little luck this New Year!

Ingredients

  • 3 whole Carrots, Peeled And Diced
  • 2 whole Onions, Peeled And Roughly Chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 2 cups Dried Black-Eyed Peas
  • 2 whole Bay Leaves
  • 3 cloves Garlic, Sliced
  • 1 Tablespoon Peppercorns
  • Salt To Taste
  • 6 cups Chicken Stock

Preparation

1. Sweat the carrots and onions in the oil over medium-high heat until the onions are soft.

2. Add the peas and stir until the skins are opaque and “blanched.”

3. Add the bay leaves, garlic, peppercorns and salt and give it a stir.

4. Cover with chicken stock and bring to a boil and then lower to a very gentle simmer. Cook on low, partly covered, for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally. It is ready when the skins begin to slip off and the beans are tender.

Makes 8-10 servings.

Loved the flavor and interest of these peas. The bay leaves really add a nice touch. Previously black-eyes were not one of our favorite beans however; with your recipe, we’re fans!

My first time cooking Black eyed peas and now I’m a fan! Even my kids ate them with rice!

Delicious. I think I’d grind the peppercorns up next time too, but the flavor was great and they were so easy to make!

Loved the black-eyed peas! The bay leaves really add an amazing depth of flavor and interest. The only thing I will change the next time I make them is I’ll grind the peppercorns first. The flavor was good, just a bit of a suprise and a little more concentrated flavor when you bite down on one of those.

We really enjoyed this recipe for New Year’s Black Eyed Peas. Added leftover Christmas Ham. We’ve tried several different B.E.P. recipes for New Year”s & this is by far the favorite!!
