New Year Black Eyed Peas image

A delicious New Year's Eve recipe to bring you luck in the new year! I sometimes just use the ham bone and some of the surrounding meat from the traditional Christmas ham that I make each year, but the ham hocks also add a nice, smokey, rustic flavor of their own.

Categories     Side Dish     Beans and Peas

Time 11h20m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound dry black-eyed peas
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 (32 ounce) cartons chicken broth
8 cups water
1 pound smoked ham hocks
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
5 pepperoncini peppers
1 bay leaf
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon ground thyme
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place the black-eyed peas into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let stand 8 hours to overnight. Drain and rinse before using.
  • In a large stock pot over medium heat, cook and stir onion and garlic in olive oil until onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth and 8 cups water, bring to a boil, and reduce heat to a simmer. Stir in soaked black-eyed peas, ham hocks, tomatoes, pepperoncini, bay leaf, garlic powder, thyme, and salt and pepper. Cover and simmer until peas are tender, ham meat is falling off the bones, and the broth is thickened, about 3 hours.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my black-eyed peas turned out mushy. Maybe I cooked them for too long?

This recipe is a little too salty for my taste. I'll reduce the amount of salt next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover ham. I always have ham leftover after the holidays, and this is a delicious way to use it up.

These black-eyed peas were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra spices next time.
