02Steps
  1. Rinse black eyed peas thoroughly. Soak black eyed peas and dried tangerine peel in separate bowls with water overnight or for at least 4 hours. The tangerine peel should be scraped clean of its white pith after soaking to reduce bitterness.
  2. Drain the soaked black eyed peas. In a large pot, add the drained black eyed peas, prepared tangerine peel, and water.
  3. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over high heat.
  4. Reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 45-60 minutes, or until the black eyed peas are very tender and have softened.
  5. Stir in the rock sugar until it fully dissolves. Taste and adjust sweetness if desired.
  6. Ladle the sweetened black eyed pea soup into serving bowls and serve warm.
