Cover and cook until the ham hocks are completely tender, about 4 hours. Meanwhile, make the chile vinegar: Put the sliced chiles in a 1-quart glass jar. Bring the vinegar, sugar, and salt to a boil in a nonreactive saucepan. Cool briefly and then pour the hot vinegar over the chiles. Cool again for a few minutes, then cover with the lid and refrigerate for up to 3 months. When the hocks are tender, add the peas, salt, and pepper and cook until the peas are tender, 30 to 45 minutes. Make sure the peas have enough liquid to cover them throughout the cooking process.

If the liquid seems to be evaporating too quickly, cover the pot. The liquid should soak up into the beans as they cook; when they are done, the liquid level should be even with the peas.

I remember his crowder peas being reddish brown in color about the same size as black eyed peas but neither looked or tasted like them. Can anyone tell me what variety these might be? Our family considered crowders and purple hulls superior to black eyed peas. Crowder peas are not black eyed OR purple hulls.

They're all different but I like them all raised in Arkansas and Tennessee so had them in the garden all the time. I love fresh black eyed peas much better than cannednot even the same "animal" to me, and I buy frozen since we do not have a garden. Add a little onion makes them even better and bake some cornbread to go with them. Makes me hungry even after midnight!! I also grew up in Arkansas with a garden having a variety of different field peas.

My favorites were whippoorwills but very tiny and tedious to shell. Crowders are my choice now. If you are buying a canned product make sure it says packed from fresh shelled on the can. Bush sells crowder, purple hull and black eyes- some with snaps, young green pea pods added- and looking at these will show you the difference.

I have also bought frozen cream peas. All these peas convert their sugars to starch as they mature. I prefer them just old enough to shell without the wet sticky substance surrounding the indivual peas. Actually the blackeye pea, field pea, crowder pea and cowpea are beans in the same genus. They are all subspecies of the cowpea group. On the same biological level they can be considered the same plant but the subspecies vary - something close to cabbage and brussels sprouts but with less diversity.

Remember - biologically they are legumes and beans - definitely not peas. I still find a meal of Purple Hulls and white cornbread a real dining treat. You can also cook Crowders with grits for a dish that is firm and does not run across the plate. I used to grow Whippoorwills out in south central Nebraska, but I don't have enough garden space any moire. They are a grayish brown speckled cowpea. There is some science to the combination of cowpeas and cornbread.

The cowpea lacks a complete protein spectrum of amino acids. The cornbread adds the needed amino acid group to make the protein content complete. I so love all these stories, agronomy lessons and cooking tips. I've raised them all my life, you bunch of city slickers.
