FARRO OR BULGUR WITH BLACK-EYED PEAS, CHARD AND FETA
Black-eyed peas cooked with greens is a classic Greek preparation. I decided to add a chile pepper to the beans, just to spice things up a little. I like to serve the beans with bulgur, but you can also serve them with farro.

Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes, and add half the garlic and the chiles.

BLACK-EYED PEAS WITH CHARD AND GREEN HERB SMASH
This is a super-quick stew which has its roots in Palestine. Pick your chard color here-the clean green Swiss or the sweet-shop-neon rainbow chard. It is not often that one vegetable provides such a bouquet of options. Sometimes, I like to top this with tahini for an extra layer of flavor.

Steps:
- Fill and boil a kettle of water and get all your ingredients together. Put a large saucepan over heat.
- Wash and finely slice the leek. Add to the saucepan with the coconut or olive oil and cook over medium heat for a couple of minutes, until soft and sweet. Finely slice the garlic and add to the pan with the chile powder and cook for a couple of minutes, until the garlic is beginning to brown. Add the black-eyed peas with their liquid, the stock powder, and 2/3 cup/200 ml of hot water from the kettle and bring to a simmer. Grate in the nutmeg, squeeze in the juice of the half lemon, add the squeezed lemon half to the pan, and simmer for 10 minutes or so. Meanwhile, strip the leaves from the chard stalks. Finely slice the stalks and add them to the pan, then finely shred the leaves and put to one side.
- Put all the ingredients for the herb smash into a food processor and purée until you have a smooth, grassy paste. Season well with salt and pepper.
- Once the peas are soft and flavorful and the liquid has reduced to a thick,soup-like consistency, stir in the chard leaves, season well with salt and pepper, and leave to cook for a couple of minutes. Scoop into deep bowls and spoon over the herb smash. If you're really hungry, some rice or flatbread would go well alongside.
BLACK-EYED PEAS AND RICE
In her cookbook, "Jubilee: Recipes from Two Centuries of African American Cooking," Toni Tipton-Martin writes about the Carolina lowcountry tradition of the dish Hoppin' John, as recorded in the "Penn School & Sea Islands Heritage Cookbook." The dish was described as brown field peas cooked with rice to be eaten for good luck throughout the year. In African American communities, the tradition of eating rice and cowpeas dates to a celebration on Dec. 31, 1862, Freedom's Eve. On that day, enslaved Africans congregated in churches in the south, eager to hear the news that the Emancipation Proclamation had set them free. The tradition of eating peas and rice for the new year is now deeply held across cultures throughout the United States and ties to centuries-old folklore that might just lead to better health, prosperity and maybe, just maybe, a bit more luck.
