Now that is a meal right there.

My husband loves my spicy black-eyed peas, so we have them all year ‘round. He makes them even spicier with hot pepper sauce.

And I agree with wardaddy; don’t give me sweet cornbread. A piece of traditional crusty Southern cornbread is a treat, but that other stuff might as well be yellow cake.

We normally have black eyed peas. Deer savaged my peas last year. S’ok though, hubby got 2 so far this year in the freezer.

Grew corn for cornmeal. White Cherokee. Raccoons got that.

Why do I live in the country again?

I was just digging out the history behind it.
I enjoy them, minus the pork.

I understand, but give 'em a try one day.
And take your time cooking 'em, and do it right.
They're worth it.

Ask for them, or order them over the internet.

Canned?
Get your greens fresh, and your black-eyed peas dried.
Soak the peas overnight in good clean water, and slow simmer them, the nest day, with the salt and pepper being added in the last thirty minutes of their cooking.
Cook to the tenderness you like, and I use a little beef fat with them.
