Eat a bite at the midnight on December 31st for luck in the coming New
Year! Recipe By : Traditional U.S. Southern New Year's Dish Soak the
beans overnight (or at least 4 hours). Drain the soaking water, and
cover with fresh water. Cook the beans until tender (about 30 min to
an hour.) If using a pressure cooker, rinse the peas and cook at full
pressure to 5-7 minutes. In a separate pot, steam "saute" the onions
until caramelized, adding a little water and stirring at regular
intervals until they are cooked down by about 60%. This takes about 30
minutes. Add the chopped celery and carrots to the onions, cook until
tender. Then, add the cooked black-eyed peas, cayenne pepper, salt,
and vinegar, adding the water the beans were cooked in so the
consistency is that of a sauce or very thick soup. Cook an additional
5 minutes or so. Serve over rice. Top with chopped scallion and diced
tomatoes. Pass the hot sauce for even more heat! kcal per serving:

carrots and celery would be good too. Posted to fatfree digest V98
