Stewed Black-Eyed Peas with Country Ham
|
|
|
|
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped onions
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 bay leaves
1 sprig fresh thyme
5 to 6 ounces (about 1 cup) roughly chopped country ham pieces
1 pound dried black-eyed peas, soaked in cold water overnight and rinsed well
1 quart low-sodium chicken stock
1 cup cold water
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
In a medium stockpot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the onions and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the garlic, bay leaves, thyme, and country ham. Add the black-eyed peas, chicken stock, and 1 cup cold water. Bring the liquid up to a boil, partially cover and reduce to a simmer. Simmer the peas for about 25 minutes, uncover and cook an additional 20 to 25 minutes, or until the peas are tender. Season the peas with salt and pepper as needed.
