Steps:
- Place peas into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let soak, 8 hours to overnight. Drain.
- Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Saute onion and garlic in the hot oil until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add black-eyed peas, 1 quart water, green onions, parsley, bay leaves, 1 1/2 tablespoons salt, and pepper; bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer until peas are tender and most, if not all, water is absorbed, 1 to 2 hours. Add more water if more cooking is needed. Taste and adjust salt and pepper if needed before serving.
