I made a pot of zipper peas tonight. I browned 3 cloves of garlic in bacon grease, then added a small chopped onion and one diced carrot. Then I added some chicken stock and some beautiful pork stock that I had left over from the pulled pork I made earlier this week. I added 1/2 a pound of chopped bacon and a pound of zipper peas, and some salt, a little sugar and some thyme.
They should have been delicious. I don't know what went wrong. Maybe zipper peas don't benefit from lots of seasoning; I usually just make them with a little bacon and some salt, or even just salt, and I love them.
I made cornbread to go with them, which was very good. The peas were passable, just not what I expected. I will finish eating them tomorrow and I might freeze some for a quick meal later.
