Guest guest Posted December 29, 2002 Report Share Posted December 29, 2002 Texas caviar would be a good one. I don't have a recipe but there is one on www.flylady.net if you scroll down to the bottom of the page and look for appetizers it's among them. I don't know where you live but the Lowes Foods Store usually has this in their deli. Good Luck! Robin in NC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2002 Report Share Posted December 29, 2002 Did they also tell you to hide a dime (or other small shiny coin, don't know your country) in the peas? Peas are for prosperity in the coming year. Sort and pick over a pound of dried peas and soak overnight. I discard the soaking water, although some don't. Dice a couple of large yellow onions, mince a couple or three cloves of garlic, and sauté briefly in good olive oil. Add sautéed seasoning to soaked peas, with salted water to cover and cook as long as you like. I add a splash of Liquid Smoke for flavor. Oh, and don't forget to add that dime before serving. The person who gets the dime in their serving is the luckiest for the new year.
