Field Peas and Snap Beans
Report
Greens, yellow squash, and string beans might taste delicious with so much cooking, but they lose their vibrant color. Using French techniques, I like to keep vegetables vibrant by cutting the vegetable in uniform pieces so that they cook quickly and retain their color.

Instructions
- In a colander, pick over the peas, discard any that are misshapen or discolored. Rinse well and place in a stockpot.
- Add salt pork, chopped onion, dried chile pepper, and enough cold water to cover peas. Cover tightly, set over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until almost tender, about 40 minutes. Check occasionally and top with more water, if needed, to keep peas covered.☞ TESTER TIP: If you are using frozen field peas, you may only need to cook for 20 minutes before adding the beans.
- Add snap beans and cook until peas and beans are tender, 20 to 25 minutes more.
- Do not skim off the fat. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Serve.
