Dad's Creamed Peas & Pearl Onions image

While I was growing up, it was our family tradition to make creamed peas with pearl onions for every Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner. My dad was not a happy camper if he didn't see this dish on the table. It was his favorite! I made it for my own family while our kids were growing up, and now my daughter makes this dish for her family. -Nancy Heishman, Las Vegas, Nevada

Tips:

  • Fresh ingredients: For the best flavor, use fresh peas and baby onions. If you can't find fresh peas, frozen peas will work, but they should be thawed before cooking.
  • Don't overcook the peas: Peas should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight bite to them. Overcooked peas will become mushy and lose their flavor.
  • Use good quality cream: Heavy cream or crème fraîche will give the sauce a rich and creamy texture. If you don't have either of these on hand, you can use whole milk, but the sauce will be thinner.
  • Season to taste: Salt and pepper are essential seasonings for this dish, but you can also add other herbs and spices to taste. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, and dried thyme.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is made. The peas will start to lose their color and flavor if they are allowed to sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Decadent Peas with Baby Onions and Cream is a simple but delicious side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be ready in under 30 minutes. The peas are tender and flavorful, the onions are sweet and caramelized, and the cream sauce is rich and creamy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
