Friko : Here's a recipe for dried blackeyed peas


"DRIED BLACKEYE PEAS
1 lg. pkg. dried blackeye peas
Salt to taste
Ham hocks, hog howl or ham cubes
Soak peas overnight (1 part peas and 2 parts water). Drain, Cook following day, adding more water when needed. Add salt and meat. Bring to a boil; cover and cook over low to medium heat until soft, usually around 2 hours or longer. Great served over rice with your favorite cornbread."

I also add bay leaf or two and chopped onion. Also some garlic. and a teaspoon of sugar. Also good if you substitute chicken broth (canned or box) for some of the water. And I cook the meat some before adding to peas.
