BLACK-EYED PEA CORNBREAD



Black-Eyed Pea Cornbread image

My mother-in-law passed down this very old recipe to my wife. The first time she made it, I was completely surprised. I had never heard of it, and I've been unable to find anything else quite like it. You can fix this as a side dish to a meal, or make it into muffins for snacks. Either way, you'll be pleasantly surprised.

SOUTHERN BLACK-EYED PEAS

I find pork the secret to a good black-eyed pea recipe. A double dose of ham for flavor and slow and gentle cooking creates this perfect side dish. -Emory Doty, Jasper, Georgia

BLACK EYED PEA CORNBREAD



Black Eyed Pea Cornbread image

This is apparently a recipe they make at the Black Eyed Pea restaurant (EDIT: apparently not the Black Eyed Pea Restaurant cornbread - thanks Kelly - but still yummy), but I tried it out at home and it was delicious. Rather filling, it's maybe a little too much for a side, but it's very good. Try it out! I've also just remembered that I actually used a couple of red chilli peppers, rather than jalapeno peppers, which gave it a bit more kick. So it's up to you which you use :)
