Ingredients
2 lb dried black-eyed peas
1/2 slab of lean bacon*; cut into 1/4 cubes
1 green or red pepper; finely chopped
1/2 cup onion; finely chopped
1/2 cup celery; finely chopped
2 teaspoon red wine vinegar
3 1/2 cup chicken or turkey stock
1 salt; to taste
1 freshly ground black pepper; to taste

Cooking Directions:

Rinse the peas and drain. Put the bacon in a heavy kettle and cook stirring until rendered of fat and browned. Add the chopped sweet pepper, onion, and celery, and cook, stirring until wilted. Add peas, vinegar, stock, salt, pepper, and dried hot peppers. Bring to a boil. Cover closely and let simmer about 1 hour stirring occasionally from the bottom. Check peas, and if necessary, add more water. Continue cooking 30 minutes. (Total cooking time is 2-1/2 hours or longer).
