 * 1 pound of beans
 * water

Procedure:
Quick soak. Rinse and sort beans in large pot. For 1 pound of beans add 6-9 cups of hot water. Bring to a rapid boil for about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat. Cover and let stand for one hour. Drain off this soak water and rinse beans. Add 6 cups of hot water to the beans. Simmer gently with lid tilted until the desired tenderness is reached. It will take about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Black eyed peas are often served with hot sauce.
