Field Peas and Snap Beans

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.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 pounds crowder peas fresh or frozen, or other field peas
  • 8 ounces salt pork
  • 1 large (7 oz) onion coarsely chopped
  • 1 dried red chili pepper
  • 2 cups Green bean trimmed and cut in half, fresh
  • salt freshly ground
  • black pepper freshly ground

Instructions

  1. In a colander, pick over the peas, discard any that are misshapen or discolored. Rinse well and place in a stockpot.
  2. 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.
  3. Add snap beans and cook until peas and beans are tender, 20 to 25 minutes more.
  4. Do not skim off the fat. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Serve.
