Black Eyed Peas Recipe: How to make Southern Soul Food Black Eyed Peas

[Dablkwid0w2008]

Maybe that's what I'm missing chicken broth because my peas always taste like something is missing. I did mines on the fly this year onion powder instead of real onions and garlic powder. Sylvia greens and boil a bag of brown rice. Ultra lazy :(

[missypq11]

OMG! A southern girl who never knew about chicken broth in blackeyed peas! Shame on me. I am using this recipe for my "yankee" in-laws tomorrow night. We are having a North meets South New Years with their traditional pork and saurkraut (which I love almost as much as I love them) and my traditional blackeyed peas, mixed greens and cornbread.

[mstyoung44]

Thank you for the video example, will try this for new year's celebration God Bless.

[SupraWes]

Your sweet potato casserole recipe has been making me look like a genius for a few years now, I'm not messing around, this is the one I am making for new years! Do you have a cornbread recipe?

[UGOMANGO12]

I just gained 3 lbs watching this video. Dang!

[tcvejones]

I agree with a lot of these comments! Married for 2.5yrs with my 1st child on the way! I don't get much cooking experience because my husband is a picky eater & doesn't eat soul food. I tried your mac&cheese recipe we both loved it! Will be following your pecan & sweet potato pie recipe this yr for Thanksgiving! I also printed out this one, your roasted chicken, collard greens, & your candid yams!! I will be awesome by the time my son is born and can enjoy the great food. Thank you!!

[paulineedington]

great strategy .. thanks for posting .. =)

[mskeishapac]

Wow i dont eat black eye peas but it makes me want to try them, you make them look good to eat.

[misstique08]

Hi Monique...I am southern too. Here's an easy trick when cleaning your peas: submerged them in water and all the bad peas will float to the top... and discard...swirl the ones around that remain with your hand or a spoon to make sure there are no more that will float to the top.

[sara31tx]

Not sure where you are from..but I am from Texas and I really enjoy your channel..you cook and season your food just like my grandparents taught me.

[Allen2045]

Thanks for the video. Im going to can some black eyed peas and use this recipe....Paula

[hadiyarocks113]

this gone be good

[yoadrienneaz]

I've never used chicken broth, but I just started my beans and dumping the water and trying the chicken brother instead. I de-gas the beans first. I have never seen beans done in an hour. I always use a crock pot and ham hocks.

[SuperPacman66]

Thats where I been messing up!!..Boil and then simmer for A Hour....But how long 2 boil for,Before you put on simmer??...Nice cooking ;)P

[NREnger]

So you don't soak the beans over night?

[thteto]

After living in Germany, I almost forgot how to cook these. Your recipe is better than how I remembered cooking them. Thanks !

[steinsteel]

Thanks a lot. I LOVE down to Earth food. Im going to the store tomorrow and buy them black eyed beans.Dont know if they have smoked turkey, but i try smoked pigmeat if they got it.Wouldnt smoked pig leg meat make good broth on this one?? Thanks

[oregoncheryl]

Thanks for posting, I was looking for an alternative to the classic Black Eyed Peas with Pork/Collard Greens, and this is just the ticket. I live in S. America right now so I can't get my hands on smoked turkey, but I think I will give it a try with a hambone and some sauteed smoked bacon instead. Right on!

The Cantonese use the peas for a very comforting soup that also features chicken feet and green bean vermicelli. Perfect as a 1 pot meal in winter.

[buywoodworkingplans]

Great Video!

[XCutePupa]

Looks delicious :)

[corasalv93]

@cyber8000 Attention whore shit....

[rockin3b]

@cyber8000 WTF?

What an angry loser

Get Rx

Maybe try on of those on line male member enlargemnet drugs too

[Giggra]

I never made them with chicken broth before. I may try it this year.

[1970sarteaga]

I usually use country ham seasoning pieces in all my beans. I was wondering how u think it might taste to use country ham seasoning pieces instead of the turkey in these black eyed peas? I will most definitly be cooking black eyed peas for the upcoming New Years holiday! =)

[CCAKIN36]

Now that's good chow. The smoke turkey always adds the best flavor and it's also healthy. Are you sure we're not fam because you cook like my family.

[shynsexy12]

Where do I find smoked turkey?

[stargazer444]

@shynsexy12 Kroger has smoke turkey wings bought some today along with the rest of the recipe gonna make some today

[mookiesmith18]

Should the beans be real tender from sautéing them or just a little? Cause what about when you cooking the beans in the chicken broth? don't they get tender in there from boiling them? And did it create a aroma around the house? I like when food make the house smell good.

[AntiChristClub]

Yum negro food I got to make me some of this!

[jesusluvsme12345]

@AntiChristClub LOL

[lynnybradford]

wonderful video, I totally dig the idea of chicken broth instead of water, in fact when I made some earlier I debated tossing in a bullion cube, to make it easier to salt.

[JJackeeeeee]

YES.. SMOKED TURKEY WORKS GREAT WITH BEANS...I USED IT FOR RED BEANS ALL THE TIME.. YOU ARE A FANTASTIC COOK. LOTS OF LOVE FOR YOUR GRANDMOTHER!!!! AND LOVE FOR U FOR PAYING ATTENTION!!! I KNOW YOUR HUSBAND IS REALLY REALLY HAPPY...THE WAY TO A MAN'S HEART IS HIS STOMACH IS SOOOOO  TRUE...MY HUSBAND IS HAPPY. *wink**

[Keeperz1]

man i love nigger food

[atcnick]

yum

[ikkinnikk]

Will it still taste good if I don't have chicken broth, onions okay basically all the ingredients in this video? I'm a starving college student who randomly brought some black eye peas and don't have the ready transportation to go out and buy the other ingredients. I have salt and pepper and some chicken though lol. I don't even have hot sauce man!

[Shadowslamer]

Those were so good thanks for recipie. I soked my beans first though.

[missbrittany36420]

[ziyou1969]

Cheers mate! Great recipe!

[cottoncandychic]

a lot of chicken broth

[wlacroix10]

i'm a new cook...question how do u remove the smoked turkey? i just want to serve the peas without the turkey. also where do u get smoked turkey from the deli? yes i'm vey new to cooking.

[divascancook]

You can leave the smoked turkey leg whole if you have a big enough pot. If you don't want to serve the meat but still want the smokey flavor I would just slice off a couple of really large pieces of turkey meat and cook that with the peas. When they are done you can remove them easily from the pot.

[2010KH]

I made the black eyed peas for my dad (I don't usually care to much for them) He loved them, had to send him home with a big bowl full. I also had two servings! Once again you did not disappoint! Thanks for sharing your recipes.

[divascancook]

So glad it was a success for ya!!!

[cutie21able]

you should open up your own resturant i think you would make alot of money.

[divascancook]

lol I would be so stressed out!

[makingfaces2008]

Your tutorials are so easy to follow that even us single men can use them! I noticed that you use chicken broth instead of water in your collard greens and black eyed peas recipes. Can't wait to try them out!

[divascancook]

Yaaay! I'm glad you are enjoying the recipes! Yeah I can't live without my chicken broth!

[MsTravelQueen]

I made your peas for my husband and they were soooo good.  I am not a bean cooker but my entire family (including my picky children) loved it! Thank you so much!

[crownofHisglory]

[Hamstring187]

[levone5121]

I am so glad I found your videos and channel.  I found you through an Ateyaaa video (Bourban chicken...want to try that by the way). Anyhow, I like to cook, but get tired of rotating through the same ole dinners. I look forward to watching your videos and reading your blog for ideas!

[tracisec]

Cooked it tonight and loved it!! I used regular onion, next time I will try it with green onion just to compare. Thanks Monique and thank you Ateyaaa for the referral.

[darknluvly702]

Now that looks like some good ol' peas there!! lol gotta try....thanx

[levikatt44]

THANK YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH for having a cooking channel--especially coming from a young woman! I am 31 yrs old, married, mother of a 21 month old son, & I work full time. You have no idea how I've tried to experiment with cooking, but it didn't work out the way I thought it would. LOL! Now I have VIDEOS to show me how to do things step by step. I will be trying this out very soon!

[divascancook]

I LOVE doing these cooking  tutorials so I'm excited to know you'll be trying out some of the recipes!

[pyt223]

That look delicious, and I don't even like black eyed peas. I'm definitely going to try this recipe.

[divascancook]

truth be told I'm not much of a black eye pea eater either. I can only eat them if they are made with chicken broth...gotta have some flava lol

[dlewis9111]

Okay, I'm diggin the recipe. I'm a single Dad and my kids loved it. Post a recipe for southern style potatoe salad.

[divascancook]

Hey dlewis!!! I'm so glad you and your kids enjoyed the recipe! Now you know I got some potato salad coming up for ya soon!

[blkberryshake]

[chikwitambition87]

[divascancook]

You are so welcomed! Thanks for trying out the recipes.

[pastorwright1]

GREAT RECIPE & VIDEO!!!LOOKS YUMMY

[1prettytoya]

YUM! Will be making this one New Years Eve, Ma!

[Trudy465]

That turkey was so good they tore it up. I never got rid of turkey that fast. Can't wait to make it again.

[divascancook]

LOL yeah that turkey never lasts too long around here either.

[DJTonyAllen]

I gotta make this!! Thanks for the recipe

[misshaze410]

Looks good! Sometimes my mom likes to add canned tomatoes to hers.

[lostinkorea28]

@misshaze410 Really, I bet that's a different taste. Any specific tomato? Fresh or canned?

[Ateyaaa]

I must try that very soon..thanks Monique

[misssexyred76]

cant wait to try it this way for new years! thanks!!!

[ayagrant]

I like my meat torn up in the veggies and my hubs dont! He makes me sick! LOL

[raaven36]

Yum, yum. Thanks for the good luck recipe.

[kierone1]

I will have to try this with the smoked turkey. Its better for your health than what most people use down south (back fat and salt meat).

[sanaperry]

You have the most wonderful reipes! I tried your roasted turkey and my family loved it! I can't wait to try the beans, greens and dressing.

[LUVMSLALA]

If you have the time. Soak the black eyed peas over night. That reduces the cooking time.

[ayagrant]

I was just about to ask why didnt she?

[divascancook]

I've never really been a bean soaker . I don't know why though because everybody I know soaks them overnight.

[Barginjunkie69]

Gurl .. I am ready to eat Luv it .. Happy 2010

[1btuber]

Looks good. Sometimes I add some liquid smoke to my black eyed peas. Yes Diva, your peas look very tasty

[divascancook]

Yummy! I LOVE liquid smoke! Gonna try that next time.
