BLACK-EYED PEAS RECIPE

Steps:

• Optional: Place the black-eyed peas in a large bowl and add enough cold water to cover them. Soak overnight, then drain and rinse. (see notes)
• In a large Dutch Oven or heavy bottomed pot, heat the oil, over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and sausage, and cook until lightly browned, about 5 to 8 minutes. Then, stir in the chopped onion and garlic, cooking until softened and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
• Stir in the black eyed peas, salt, pepper and bay leaves. Pour in the chicken stock and bring to a boil. Once boiling, lower the heat, cover and simmer for 1 to 1 ½ hours, or until the peas are tender.
• Remove about ½ cup of black-eyed peas and place in a bowl. Smash with a fork, then return the smashed peas to the pot. Cook on medium until the liquid thickens. Optional: Stir in the tomato paste if you prefer the broth to have a stronger color.
• At this point, you can add more liquid if you like saucy black-eyed peas or turn the heat up and wait for the liquid to evaporate, if you prefer them to be dryer.
• Discard the bay leaves and stir in the parsley and scallions. Taste for seasoning and adjust as needed.
• Serve immediately!

BLACK-EYED PEAS AND HOT SAUSAGE STEW

Steps:

• Using a large soup pot heat up the pan on a medium heat.
• Add the sliced sausage and start browning, after about 5 minutes add the onions and stir and cook until they start to get lightly golden lifting any meat bit stuck to the bottom .
• Add sliced carrots, celery , garlic and saute a further 5-10 min until they start to soften.
• Add the broth and bring to a hard simmer and cook until carrots and celery are al dente , just barely tender. DO NOT BOIL HARD.
• Add tomatoes one at a time reserving any liquid and breaking them up as you add them. I only used 2/3 of my can and most of the juice you'll have to judge how much tomato you prefer. Cook 10-15 min gently then add the garlic powder, thyme, marjoram and the smoked paprika and the beans.
• Let the pot come to a hard simmer for cook another 20-30 minutes.
