(VERY loosely adapted from Gourmet Magazine, January 1999 Pickled Black Eyed Peas and my submission to this month's Gourmet Unbound. Also sometimes referred to as Texas caviar.)
Ingredients
  • 2 cans of cooked black eyed peas, drained and rinsed,or about 22 oz. of cooked black eyed peas
  • 1 small red bell pepper

  • 6-7 jarred pickled guindilla peppers (These are a Spanish pepper -- I bought my stash at Trader Joe's. These can also be replaced with peperoncini or my beloved pickled jalapenos).
  • ½ bunch parsley
  • 5 scallions
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 2 tsp. red wine vinegar
  • 2 T. extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ tsp. Sriracha or a hot sauce of your choice

Instructions
  1. Finely chop all the peppers, the parsley, the scallions, and the garlic and add to a bowl with the peas. Combine the oil and vinegar, add Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce and toss with the peas and peppers. Serve with triscuits or tortilla chips.
