1 (28 oz) can whole peeled tomatoes

INSTRUCTIONS

Put peas in a pot and cover with water by 2 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce heat, and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from heat, cover, and let them soak for 1 hour. (Or cover the with cold water and let soak overnight.)

Drain tomatoes reserving the liquid. Hand crush tomatoes into a medium saucepan, add sugar and 1/2 cup of the tomato liquid. Cook over medium-low heat, being careful not to let it burn, until liquid has evaporated and tomatoes are thick, about 30 minutes.

In a large pot set over medium heat add olive oil, onion, garlic, and ham hock. Cook until the onions are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the soaked peas and stock and cook, covered, until peas are tender, about 20 minutes. Add some water if you need more liquid. Remove ham hock and fold in the tomato mixture. If desired, remove meat from hock, discarding skin and fat, and add to pea and tomato mixture. Taste, season with salt and pepper, and serve.

Makes 4 to 6 servings.
