Black Eyed Pea Supper Dish Food

SOUTHERN BLACK-EYED PEAS

Steps:

• If using dried black-eyed peas, put them in a large pot and cover with about 4 inches of water. Soak the peas overnight, then drain the water (reserve 2 cups of the liquid for later) and rinse. If you're pressed for time, boil the peas for 2-3 minutes, remove pot from heat and let soak for an hour.
• Pre-mix the dry spices together in a medium bowl.
• Carve one of the turkey legs, removing as much of the meat from the bone as possible. Place turkey pieces into a food processor and pulse to a grind. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the whole smoked turkey leg and saute for 1-2 minutes per side. Remove the turkey and set aside.
• Add onion, celery and garlic to the pot and cook, stirring, about 3 minutes. Add a pinch or two of the seasoning to the vegetables as you saute. Add in the ground turkey.
• Add 1/2 the spices and cook until the entire mixture is coated with the spices, about 2 minutes. Add the peas and mix well.
• Pour in the stock and reserved water if using, and drop in the bay leaves. Add the turkey leg back to the pot along with more seasoning and bay leaves.
• Bring everything to a boil, then reduce to a simmer until the peas are very soft, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Taste for seasonings, and add more if desired. Discard the bay leaves, then transfer the black-eyed peas to a serving bowl.
