| 2 | cups | black-eyed peas | ried |
| 2 | quarts | water | ore if needed |
| 1 | each | ham bone | with trimmings |
| 3 | each | onion | medium, chopped |
| 2 | each | bay leaves | |
| 1 1/2 | teaspoons | salt | |
| 1 | teaspoon | black pepper |
Wash the beans well in cold water several times, then place in a large, heavy stew pot and cover with water.
Allow to soak overnight.
The next morning (start early-beans like to take their time),
pour off the soaking water, and ham bone, 8 cups of water, onion and seasonings.
Put on the back of the stove and let simmer gently until beans are very tender, usually about 4 hours.
Add more water if needed.
Remove and discard ham bone.
If the water looks a bit scant pour in 1-2 cups more.
When beans are good and tender remove about a cup full of the beans and mash well with some of the bean liquid.
This can be done in a blender, of course.
Return mashed beans to pot, taste for seasoning, and serve steaming hot over freshly cooked white rice.
