• (This is the step that people disagree on; Some say to drain the peas and use fresh water;Some say to keep the soaking water since it has nutrients in it. Alton Brown agrees with me on this one, use the soaking water.) You may have to add more water anyway.
• I use LOTS of water and allow it to cook out.
• Add remaining ingredients except rice and cook over very low heat for several hours.
• How long depends on many factors.
• Higher altitudes must cook longer than those below sea level.
• Stir the peas at least once every 1/2 hour, being sure of 2 things: they are not sticking to the pan and when you stir, smoosh some of the peas against the side of your pan to break them since this will create a thicker gravy.
• When peas are soft enough to suit you, serve over rice with corn bread and smothered cabbage (recipe# 25265) Enjoy your feast for a healthy and prosperous New Year!
