Black Eyed Peas With Snaps Recipes

Steps:

• 1. In a large saucepan bring water, bouillon cubes, bacon grease, peas, onions, bell peppers, garlic, seasonings and ham to a boil. Save butter or margarine until the end.
• 2. Reduce heat and cover. Simmer on medium low heat until peas are tender and liquid starts to thicken. Taste for seasonings and add salt if needed.
• 3. Just before serving, add butter or margarine and stir well. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Sort and wash peas; place in a large Dutch oven.
• Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil.
• Cover, reduce heat and simmer for 1- 1 1/2 hours, or until peas are tender.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Cook garlic in aluminum foil about 25 minutes, until cloves are soft. Remove from heat. When cool enough to handle, scrape soft garlic from cloves.
• If using snaps, cook them in salted boiling water just until tender, 1 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl filled with ice water to stop the cooking, drain, and cut into 1-inch lengths. Set aside.
• Heat oil in a small skillet. Add garlic and shallot; cook over medium heat until minced shallot is translucent, stirring and smashing the garlic with the back of a wooden spoon.
• Stir in the wine and vinegar; cook until reduced to 2 tablespoons, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; whisk in the butter, a piece at a time, until fully incorporated. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in parsley just before serving. Place hot black-eyed peas, and snaps if using, in a serving bowl. Top with warm sauce; serve.
