Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large bowl, combine the drained and rinsed black-eyed peas, thawed corn kernels, chopped celery, diced pimento peppers, and minced red onion. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, granulated sugar, garlic salt, and black pepper until the sugar is dissolved. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Slowly drizzle in the vegetable oil while continuously whisking until the dressing is emulsified and slightly thickened. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Pour the dressing over the vegetables in the large bowl. Stir gently to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or transfer to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld together. The salad will taste even better the next day! (4+ hours)

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the dressing.
If you prefer a less pronounced onion flavor, soak the minced red onion in ice water for 10 minutes before adding it to the salad.
This salad is a great make-ahead dish for potlucks and barbecues. It travels well and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
