How long do you soak dried uncooked black eyed peas?

If you aren’t using canned black eyed peas, you will need to soak your dried ones to help them rehydrate and make them edible. To do this, simply place them in a bowl of water, cover the bowl, and keep them in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or even better, overnight. Then they cook easier.

What can I add to black eyed pea salad for flavor?

You can add some chopped herbs like rosemary, thyme, sage, or even aromatics like garlic and ginger.

What is a substitute for black eyed peas?

Chickpeas would be the best substitute as everyone is familiar with them and they are very easy to find. Alternatively, you can use lima beans aka butter beans or romano beans too. These have very similar flavor profiles, textures, and preparation methods.

Are black beans the same as black eyed peas?

Black eyed peas and black beans are not the same bean. They are both legumes and members of the same botanical family, but that is where the resemblance stops. Black beans are completely black (or dark purple) and have a tiny white spot in the middle. They also have a much more oval-like shape.
