BLACK EYED PEA SOUP WITH HAM AND GREENS



Black Eyed Pea Soup With Ham and Greens image

Posting this for ZWT 2006 (French Cajun & Creole region). This is a very homey comforting sort of a soup. The spices are easily played with if you like it spicier and it is even better with a good dollop of hot sauce in it.

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 tablespoons oil
2 medium onions, chopped
1 lb cooked ham, chopped
1 carrot, peeled and finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 lb collard greens, finely chopped
1 (14 ounce) can chicken broth
5 cups water
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 (16 ounce) cans black-eyed peas (I use the ones with Jalapeno in them myself)
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oil in large saucepan over medium heat; add onions, ham, carrot and garlic.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft; add collards, broth, water, bay leaf and red pepper flakes to saucepan and simmer until greens are tender, about 25 minutes.
  • Rinse and drain black eyed peas; semi mash one can of peas in a bowl; add those peas and other can into soup and simmer 5 minutes; season to taste with salt and pepper; stir in vinegar.
  • Don't omit the vinegar by the way. It truly adds something to it and gives it a much more southern taste for lack of a better way of putting it.
