Ingredients

How to make it

  • Heat oil in large saucepan over medium heat; add onions, ham, carrot and garlic.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft; add collards, broth, water, bay leaf and red pepper flakes to saucepan and simmer until greens are tender, about 25 minutes.
  • Rinse and drain black eyed peas; semi mash one can of peas in a bowl; add those peas and other can into soup and simmer 5 minutes; season to taste with salt and pepper; stir in vinegar.
  • Don't omit the vinegar by the way. It truly adds something to it and gives it a much more southern taste for lack of a better way of putting it.

    I replaced the ham with meat cut from a smoked turkey leg and baked two other smoked turkey legs to serve atop the soup. A pan of corn bread. It was delicious!
