Hoppin' John (Braised Black Eyed Peas)

A traditional Southern dish that has roots in African, Caribbean, and European cuisines, and is typically served on New Year's Day for good luck. Black eyed peas are braised with the holy trinity of onions, bell pepper, and celery, plus spices. Served with steamed rice — plus chopped scallions and parsley for a pop of freshness.
