Grandma Weseman's English Pea Salad image

Southern English Pea Salad is something my Grandmother made almost every Thanksgiving and Christmas to go along with the meal. It is very simple, but tasty.

Provided by Chief Teer

Categories     < 4 Hours

Time 2h25m

Yield 2 Quart Bowl, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 (15 ounce) cans peas, drained
1 cup diced American cheese or 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup diced onion
1 (2 ounce) jar pimientos, cut into small pieces
4 diced hard-boiled eggs
2 hard-boiled eggs, quartered long way (to garnish)
1 cup Miracle Whip (increase as necessary)
salt, to taste
paprika

Steps:

  • It is important that you let the salad stand in the refrigerator for at least an hour or so, otherwise, it will not taste right as the onions are the only thing that flavors the dressing.
  • Grandma always made it with Miracle Whip, but if you are one of those folks who despises the taste, you can substitute mayonnaise with 1-2 tablespoons of sugar added. You can also, add in 2 Tbsps Hormel real bacon bits for extra flavor.
  • Mix all. Let stand for a minimum of two hours in the refrigerator.
  • Sprinkle top with paprika for garnished look.
  • Cook time is chill time in refrigerator.

ENGLISH PEA POTATO SALAD WITH OPTIONAL BACON



English Pea Potato Salad with Optional Bacon image

This simple potato salad boasts sweet emerald peas, creamy cheddar cubes, zingy red onions, and tender baby red potatoes tossed with light, lemony mayo sauce. Serve with crisp bacon bits for optional topping (or just stir bacon into half for the meat-eaters). Don't forget to set the peas out to thaw a couple of hours before starting!

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 to 2 pounds baby red potatoes (scrubbed and unpeeled)
1 1/2 cups frozen peas (thawed and drained if necessary)
1 cup cubed medium or sharp cheddar cheese (1/2-inch cube (4 ounces))
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Additional salt and black pepper to taste
6 slices thick-cut bacon (diced, cooked until crisp, and drained)
6 slices thick-cut bacon (diced, cooked until crisp, and drained)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the potatoes and return to a boil. Cook until potatoes are fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and return potatoes to pan, filling with cold water and ice to cool the potatoes. Let sit for a minute or two and then drain. Allow potatoes to cool to room temperature.
  • Place cooled potatoes in a large bowl and add peas, cheese, red onion, and bacon if you're making a full-on meaty version.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Pour over the veggies and gently toss until all ingredients are coated. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired.
  • If adding bacon to half, remove half of the salad to its own bowl and stir the bacon into half. Or, a little easier, just serve the bacon alongside for optional topping.

FRESH ENGLISH PEA SALAD



Fresh English Pea Salad image

From The Kitchen restaurant in Boulder, CO in their appetizers section. There is a note that says as sping turns to summer and the peas get sweeter to substitute feta cheese for the pecorino. Yum yum! I love peas! This is an appetizer to be shared, although I think with some balsamic glazed chicken this would be an excellent dinner salad!

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 40m

Yield 1 appetizer, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb fresh English pea (usually still in the pod)
1 bunch of fresh mint
1/2 bunch arugula
1/4 cup lemon juice
4 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper
1/4 lb pecorino cheese

Steps:

  • Remove peas from pods. Bring a pot of very salty water to boil. Add peas and boil for about 1 minute, just until color changes to a consistent bright green. Remove and cool in ice water or under running cold water. (The cold water stops the cooking and keeps the peas bright green.).
  • Wash and dry mint and arugula. In a bowl, combine peas with mint and arugula. Add juice of 1 lemon, olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Shave half of the pecorino onto a cutting board and reserve. Shave remaining pecorino, chop, and add to salad; toss. Taste and adjust seasoning with more lemon juice or olive oil as desired.
  • 3. Serve immediately, topped with reserved shaved pecorino cheese.

SOUTHERN ENGLISH PEA SALAD RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Southern English Pea Salad Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by msippigrl

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 (15-ounce) cans Delmonte Very Young Sweet Peas
6 large hard-boiled eggs, chopped
1/2 cup mayo
Pinch onion salt
Pinch garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Chopped sweet pickles, optional
Finely chopped onion, optional

Steps:

  • Everything is pretty much just stirred together but it's very important that the peas be as dry as possible to prevent the mayo from watering. What I do is, after draining them well in a colander I lay the peas out on a jellyroll pan that has been lined with several layers of paper towels (then just fold them up in the towels to transfer to the mixing bowl with the remaining ingredients.) *Can add a little chopped sweet pickle or finely diced raw onion, but we like it better without. Garnish top with an additional sliced hard-boiled egg, if desired. Keep refrigerated.
