I sometimes use a dash or ground cayenne pepper or about 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of spicy Cajun seasoning in place of the red pepper flakes. These peas are delicious with cornbread or muffins and seasoned greens. This is a tradional New Years Day dish in our Southern States.

Steps:
- Soak dried black eyed peas in 4 quarts of water overnight. Boil hog jowls and ham in water to cover for 2 hours.
- Remove meat from broth and shred. Add drained peas, onions, dry mustard, pepper flakes, carrot, garlic, black pepper, thyme, salt and oregano to broth along with meat shreds.
- Cover and simmer at least 3 hours. The longer this simmers the better it gets.
