Steps:
- Toss together cabbage and peas in a large bowl. Whisk together remaining ingredients and pour over slaw, stirring to combine well. Add salt to taste, then chill, covered, at least 2 hours.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, firm black-eyed peas for the best flavor and texture.
- Soak the black-eyed peas overnight or for at least 8 hours before cooking. This will help them cook more evenly and quickly.
- Rinse the black-eyed peas thoroughly before cooking.
- Use a large pot to cook the black-eyed peas, as they will expand as they cook.
- Add salt to the cooking water only after the black-eyed peas have softened. Adding salt too early can toughen the peas.
- Cook the black-eyed peas until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked black-eyed peas will become mushy.
- Drain the black-eyed peas and rinse them with cold water before using them in the slaw.
- For the best flavor, use a variety of crunchy vegetables in the slaw, such as cabbage, carrots, celery, and bell peppers.
- Use a light, tangy dressing for the slaw, such as a vinaigrette or a yogurt-based dressing.
- Serve the slaw immediately or chill it for later.
