This is an excellent, tasty and healthy dip anywhere... but especially in Texas, and especially at a tailgate party. Made with black-eyed peas, the flavors are smokey and salty and creamy (that be the beans) and nutty (beans again) and get better n' better after a day or so of marinating. And it is totally open to being fussed with so you can really do whatever you like to make it your own. it is actually a kind of salsa, as in, for chips. In some recipes, this seems tricky to me. But, if you mash some of the beans to thicken it and hold it together, it will stay on a chip pretty well.
