Side Dish 2 Hr.

Ingredients

5

5 servings

  • 3 cups water
  • 1 pound dry black-eyed peas
  • 2 smoked ham hocks
  • salt to taste
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 bay leaf

Instructions

  • Rinse dried peas thoroughly, sorting any tiny pebbles or other debris.
  • Place 3 cups of water, black-eyed peas, ham hocks, salt, pepper, and bay leaf in a large stockpot; bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook, uncovered, until peas and ham hocks are tender, about 1 ½ hours. If ham hocks require further cooking, simmer in water in a separate pot until meat is easily pulled from the bone.
  • Cool ham hocks and remove all meat from the bone. Stir ham into the peas, adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed, and serve.
