BLACK-EYED PEA SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Brush olive oil on the peppers, and place them cut side down on a piece of heavy duty aluminum foil (with the edges turned up to avoid drips.) Roast until charred, them remove them to a resealable plastic bag or tightly covered pan to sweat and cool down.
• Make the vinaigrette just before use. Through the feed opening of a running blender, add vinegar and garlic. With the blender still running, pour olive oil in a slow thin stream. (Alternatively, you can prepare the vinaigrette by whisking the ingredients into a bowl in the same order, in which case, the garlic should be minced first.)
• Return to the bell peppers and peel off the blackened skin. Slice the flesh of the peppers brunoise (julienne, then crosswise) and place in a mixing bowl. Fold in the drained black-eyed peas, scallions, and parsley. Stir in enough of the vinaigrette to coat. Serve family style.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cover peas with 4 inches of water and soak a minimum of 6 hours, or overnight. Drain and rinse thoroughly.
• Place peas in a 4-quart saucepan with chicken broth or water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer peas between 45 to 55 minutes, or until peas are cooked but not mushy. Drain excess liquid and let peas cool to room temperature.
• Combine buttermilk, mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, hot sauce salt and pepper in a bowl, and whisk to incorporate.
• In a salad bowl, combine beans, red onion, celery and chives. Pour dressing over bean mixture and gently stir to incorporate, being careful not to break up too many of the beans. Add spinach and toss to coat. Season with additional salt, pepper and hot sauce, to taste. Serve immediately.

BLACK-EYED PEA SALAD

Steps:

• Prepare an ice-water bath by filling a large bowl with ice and water. Line a plate with paper towels.
• To cook the corn, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil over high heat. Add the corn and cook until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove with tongs to the ice water to cool, then transfer to the towel-lined plate to drain.
• To cook the black-eyed peas, add them to the pot and simmer until tender but not mushy, about 20 minutes. (Taste one and see how tender it is; the cooking time will depend on their freshness.)
• Meanwhile, cut the corn kernels from the cobs and place in a large bowl. Add the tomatoes, onion, and garlic. When the peas are tender, drain them in a colander, then shock under cold running water to stop the cooking. Once the peas are completely cool, drain very well, shaking to remove all the moisture, and add to the corn mixture, along with the basil. Set aside.
• To make the dressing, whisk together the vinegar and mustard in a bowl. Add the oil in a slow steady stream, whisking constantly, until the dressing is creamy and emulsified. Season the dressing with salt and pepper.
• To serve, drizzle over a little of the salad dressing. Toss to coat, adding more if needed. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
