Mom’s Lucky Black-Eyed Peas
Yield: 6-8 servings
Steps
- If using dried peas, soak overnight (12 hours). Drain before using.
- Into a large stock pot, add fresh or prepared black-eyed peas, chicken stock, water, salt, cumin, chili powder, jalapeños, and onion.
- Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Cook for about 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally. Add more water if necessary. Beans will be soft, almost creamy, but not mushy.
- For a traditional southern new years menu, serve with pork and greens.
