Time 1h10m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 ounces ham hocks (two or one large one)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 lb other ham or 1/4 lb sausage (**If there is no Tasso Recipe here on Recipezaar I will post one-it's worth making)
1 cup chopped yellow onion
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
2 bay leaves
1 lb black-eyed peas, rinsed and picked over
2 quarts chicken stock or 2 quarts low-sodium chicken stock
2 tablespoons minced fresh flat leaf parsley

Steps:

  • With a sharp knife score the fat on the ham hocks 1/4-inch deep.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy stockpot over medium high heat.
  • Add the tasso and cook, stirring often, until heated through, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the onions and bell peppers and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the ham hocks, garlic, salt, pepper, cayenne, and bay leaves.
  • Cook, stirring often for 2 minutes.
  • Add the black-eyed peas and chicken stock.
  • Bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Reduce heat to medium low.
  • Simmer uncovered until the peas are tender, about 45 minutes to 1 hour, stirring often and skimming off any foam that forms.
  • Remove the bay leaves and discard.
  • Cut the meat from the hock, discarding the skin and bones.
  • Return meat to the pot.
  • Stir in the parsley.
  • Serve.

I found this recipe to be a little too spicy, but I think that's because I used a little too much cayenne pepper. Otherwise, they were really good. I'll definitely be making them again, but I'll use less cayenne pepper next time.

I found this recipe to be a little too bland. I added some extra spices and it was much better. I think it would also be good with some chopped bacon or ham.
