My mother-in-law passed down this very old recipe to my wife. The first time she made it, I was completely surprised. I had never heard of it, and I've been unable to find anything else quite like it. You can fix this as a side dish to a meal, or make it into muffins for snacks. Either way, you'll be pleasantly surprised.

BLACK EYED PEA CORNBREAD



Black Eyed Pea Cornbread image

This is apparently a recipe they make at the Black Eyed Pea restaurant (EDIT: apparently not the Black Eyed Pea Restaurant cornbread - thanks Kelly - but still yummy), but I tried it out at home and it was delicious. Rather filling, it's maybe a little too much for a side, but it's very good. Try it out! I've also just remembered that I actually used a couple of red chilli peppers, rather than jalapeno peppers, which gave it a bit more kick. So it's up to you which you use :)

Tips:

  • Choose the right type of cornmeal. For these muffins, you'll want to use a coarse or medium-grind cornmeal. This will give the muffins a slightly gritty texture that complements the black-eyed peas and corn.
  • Soak the black-eyed peas overnight. This will help to soften them and make them more digestible. If you don't have time to soak them overnight, you can quick-soak them by boiling them for 30 minutes, then turning off the heat and letting them sit for an hour.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the muffins tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature. This will help them to rise and give them a crispy crust.
  • Let the muffins cool before serving. This will help them to hold their shape.

Conclusion:

These black-eyed pea and corn muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish or snack. They're perfect for a potluck or picnic, and they're also a great way to use up leftover black-eyed peas. With their slightly gritty texture and sweet corn flavor, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
