Things You'll Need:
- Pinch of baking soda
- Pepper
- Salt
- Lawry's seasoning salt
- Honey
- Imitation bacon bits
- 1 onion or dried onion bits
- 2 tbsp. margarine
- 1 bag of black eyed peas
- Pot with a top
-
Step 1
Pour one bag of black eyed peas into a pot with enough lukewarm tap water to cover the black eyed peas.
-
Step 2
Place the pot's top over the peas so they will swell for 1 hour.
-
Step 3
Add the desired amount of seasoning (pepper, salt, Lawry's seasoning salt, honey, imitation bacon bits, onions, margarine, baking soda) after black eyed peas are swollen.
-
Step 4
Cook black eyed peas on simmer for 2 hours, and place the top back on the pot.
-
Step 5
Stick a fork in the black eyed peas to make sure they are soft. If they are cooked fully, they should easily smash in your fingers or on the fork if flattened.
