Blackeyed Peas

Uses:

Today, everybody seems to be pushing information and ideas - not all of them convenient. At Melissa’s, our aim is to make your life more tasty, healthy, and convenient every day. With no soaking required, Melissa’s Vegetarian Blackeyed Peas are quick, easy and so convenient. Unlike dried peas, which require a few hours of soaking to replenish their moisture before using, these pre-soaked peas are available in easy-to-display, see-through, shatterproof tubs (11 oz.) and carry a 21-day shelf life (versus the 7-10 day shelf life often associated with bagged peas.)

Widely eaten in Southern parts of the United States, this legume is said to bring luck if consumed on the first day of the New Year. However, these beans are so versatile and delicious, why wait?

Use any time of the year in soups, salads, and stews, as a delicious side dish. They can also be pureed and served as a dip.

In an uncovered 3-quart saucepan, bring 2 ½ cups of unsalted water to a boil. Add 11-oz. tub of Melissa’s Vegetarian Blackeyed Peas. Return to a boil. Reduce heat and bring to a gentle-rolling boil for 8-10 minutes or until tender. Drain and discard water. Serve.

Selection, Storage & Handling:

With a shelf life of 21 days, Melissa’s Vegetarian Blackeyed Peas are packaged for excellent quality and must be refrigerated.
