Best Black Eyed Peas And Ham Hocks Recipes
BLACK-EYED PEAS AND HAM HOCKS
This recipe is in response to 'cutelittlerocker's' request for anything Southern. It is my Mom's recipe, and she was from Arkansas. A portion of the peas may be mashed once cooked, then stirred together with the whole peas and shredded ham hock for a creamier consistency.

Steps:
- Rinse dried peas thoroughly, sorting any tiny pebbles or other debris.
- In a large stockpot, bring 3 cups of water to a boil with black-eyed peas, ham hocks, salt, pepper, and bay leaf. Reduce to a simmer and cook, uncovered, 1 1/2 hours, or until peas and ham hocks are tender. If ham hocks require further cooking, simmer in water in a separate pot until meat is easily pulled from the bone.
- Cool ham hocks and remove all meat from the bone. Stir ham into the peas, adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed, and serve.

SPICY HAM HOCKS AND BLACK-EYED PEAS
You can serve this on rice or simply as a side dish. It's alittle bit spicy, but you might like to add some Tabasco or hot green pepper sauce to give it a little more punch. I do.

NEW YEAR'S DAY BLACK-EYED PEAS AND HAM HOCKS
My grandfather served similar black-eyed peas, just after midnight, every New Year's Eve, on a leaf of fresh cabbage. I've taken his ideas, and tweaked them...just a bit.

Steps:
- Soak dried peas overnight or longer.
- Sautee the holy trinity and serrano pepper in oil until they sweat. You may want to season the veggies at this point, but beware -- unless you are familiar with the salt content of the hocks, tread lightly.
- Add drained peas and remaining ingredients, except toasted flour, and bring to a boil. Then, cover, and simmer for two hours, or until peas are tender.
- When peas are tender, remove and debone the hocks, chop the meat into bite-sized chunks, and return to pot. Continue to simmer.
- In a sautee pan, toast the flour over medium heat until a medium to dark carmel color -- ten minutes should do the trick. Add it to the peas a bit at a time, and stir after each addition, until desired thickness is achieved.
