Recipes
Black Eyed Peas & Bacon Sausage
Yield: 10 Servings
Ingredients:
16 oz. Dried Black-eyed Peas
8 Cups Water
2 packs Big Fork Bacon Sausage (Any Flavor), sliced
1 Large Onion, Small Diced
4 Cloves Garlic, Smashed
2 Ribs Celery, Small Diced
1 Can or Bottle Craft Beer (low IBU)
1 (28 ounce) Can Muir Glen Fire Roasted Organic Diced Tomatoes
2 T. Tamari Soy Sauce
½ t. Sea Salt
1 (4 ounce) Can Chopped Green Chilies
2 t. Maple Syrup
1 Bay Leaf
¼ t. Thyme, Dried
½ t. Black Pepper, Ground
¼ t. Cayenne Pepper, Ground
1 T. Lemon Juice
½ t. Smoked Paprika
½ t. Cumin
Directions
-
In a large soup pot, bring the water and peas to a boil. Remove from the heat, place into a glass container that you can cover and let sit 1 hour. While the peas are soaking, do the rest of the preparation for the soup.
-
Heat the Big Fork Bacon Sausage in the large soup pot over medium heat. Brown the sausage. Once the sausage is brown, add the onions, garlic, and celery and cook for another 10 minutes, on medium low, stirring occasionally.
-
Add the remaining ingredients, including the peas (and their liquid) that have been soaking for at least 1 hour, and bring to a simmer, covered. Simmer for 1 ½ hours. Remove from heat and properly cool.
Notes: It is best to cook this (and any other for that matter) soup at least a day ahead of time to achieve optimal flavor complexity. Serve with the soup warm with steamed white or brown rice. Garnish of choice: Tabasco hot sauce.

Spring Onion & Bacon Sausage Soup
Spring onions, also known as scallions or green onions, are a type of onion that are harvested before the bulb has fully formed. They are characterized by their long, slender green leaves and white, bulbous bases. Spring onions have a milder flavor than mature onions, making them a popular ingredient in a variety of dishes.
Spring onions can be used in a variety of ways in cooking. They can be chopped and used as a garnish for soups, stews, and salads, or used as a flavoring agent in stir-fries and other dishes. The green leaves can also be used to add flavor to stocks and broths. Spring onions can be grilled, roasted, sautéed, or pickled to bring out their unique flavor.
When selecting spring onions, look for ones with bright green leaves and firm, white bases. Avoid any that appear wilted or discolored. Spring onions can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Soup and stew are both types of dishes that are made by combining various ingredients and cooking them together in a liquid base. However, there are some key differences between the two:
-
Consistency: One of the main differences between soup and stew is their consistency. Soup is typically thinner and more liquid, with a broth or stock base that is often seasoned with herbs, spices, or other flavorings. Stew, on the other hand, is thicker and more substantial, with a thicker broth or sauce that coats the ingredients.
-
Cooking Time: Another key difference between soup and stew is the length of time they are cooked. Soups are usually cooked quickly over high heat, while stews are cooked slowly over low heat for a longer period of time, often several hours. This slow cooking helps to break down tougher cuts of meat and allows the flavors to meld together.
-
Ingredients: Soups and stews can contain a similar range of ingredients, including vegetables, meats, and grains. However, stews often include larger, chunkier pieces of meat and vegetables that are cooked for longer, while soups may contain smaller, diced pieces that cook quickly.
-
Serving: Soups are often served as a starter course, while stews are typically served as a main course, accompanied by bread or other side dishes.
Overall, the main difference between soup and stew is their thickness and cooking time, with stews being thicker and cooked for longer periods of time than soups.
