Eating black-eyed peas on New Year’s Day is a Southern tradition that’s believed to bring luck and prosperity in the coming year. Every year, since I can remember, we have had black-eyed peas on New Year’s Day. I even recall my mother putting a dime in the pot of peas, for added prosperity.
Black-Eyed Peas and Sausage
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ cup chopped onion
- 1 small jalapeno pepper stems and seeds removed, chopped, divided
- 6 ounces Kielbasa sausage sliced in rounds
- 1 cup chicken or vegetable stock
- 1 ½ cups water
- 1 1/2 cups fresh shelled black-eyed peas
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Place a medium saucepan on medium-high heat, add olive oil. Add onions, 1 tablespoon jalapeño peppers, and sausage. Saute vegetables until tender and sausage is heated, approximately 5 minutes.
- Add stock and water, increase heat and bring to a boil. Add black-eyed peas, return to a gentle boil, reduce heat and simmer 15-20 minutes or until peas are tender. Season with salt and pepper. Serve, garnished with jalapeno peppers.
Notes
Black-eyed peas are often served with pork, collard greens, and cornbread. Thought I would share my recipe with you as it’s so simple and easy. I use fresh black-eyed peas, you can certainly use dried but you will need to soak or add more cooking time. I really love Melissa’s Black Eyed Peas found in the produce section of your grocery store.
Enjoy!!!
