My maternal grandparents from Mississippi always grew and served purple hull peas, so I enjoy memories of them whenever it is pea season. This recipe was a winner at the Emerson, Arkansas, PurpleHull Pea Festival & World Championship. I made minor alterations to suit our tastes. See www.purplehull.com for more recipe ideas.
