Re: Black Peas
 

I hope you soaked them in a decent Brandy, that always brings out the flavour, (of the Brandy).

Best thing, google for it there are allsorts of recipes even just a plain bung them in the pan and leave them to burn sort of thing.

Re: Black Peas
 

Well I soaked them over night.... and cooked them on a low heat for an hour:
Result: Very very good.... lots of vinegar and a splash of mint sauce: very filling and a good cheap and low calorie and low in fat tea:

Re: Black Peas
 

Are black peas the things that taste like lamp oil until you put vinegar on them? Do I remember correctly that they were popular on bonfire nite; or is my memory going?
