Red Rippers
Just had some for lunch ... these were from my garden , and this is the
first time I've tried them . Cooked them in the little crock pot for about 3 hours after an overnight soak . Seasoned with some ham scraps , garlic , onion , and salt & pepper. I used too much pepper ... What *are* Red Rippers you ask ? They're field peas , a member of the bean family , and a cousin of blacke eyed peas . Much tastier than their cousin too , IMO . They'll be on my list for next summer fersher ! -- Snag |

They'll be on my list for next summer fersher ! They'll do but you ain't et nothin' 'til "zipper cream" or brown conchs. Seasoned as above but without the alium and with a small handful of okra on top. A couple of spiney gumbo okras at the start and a few more small-to-medium tender gus just cooking-time before the peas is done. Oh, man: Just thinking about it is going to cause me to bake some cornbread before bedtime to go with the leftover peas'n in the fridge. See what you've done? Chaos , mayhem , and disorder , my work here is finished ... evil grin I was visiting earlier with a friend who is opening a sandwich shop in town , he's the first person I've mentioned RR's to that knew what they were . Almost invited himself over for lunch ! So I carried what we didn't eat for lunch to the shop , but he was gone for the day . His partner put them in the cooler , I expect to hear from him tomorrow . -- Snag |
