Instructions

  1. Drain and rinse the black-eyed peas. Gently pat dry with a paper towel. Set aside.
  2. Squeeze the juice from one of the lemon halves into a medium bowl. Slice the remaining lemon half into wedges and set aside.
  3. Add the scallions to the bowl and toss with lemon juice. Let sit for 5 minutes.
  4. While vigorously whisking the scallion and lemon juice mixture, slowly drizzle in the olive oil. Fold in the black-eyed peas and fresh dill. Taste and add salt as needed. Serve with lemon wedges for squeezing.

Notes

  • Store Greek Black Eyed Peas in an airtight container in the refrigerator, where it will stay fresh for up to 3-4 days. Freezing is not recommended as it can significantly alter the texture and flavor, especially of the fresh herbs and dressing.
