Tips
- For the best flavor, use freshly cooked field peas if possible. If using canned, drain and rinse them thoroughly.
- Allow the dip to sit for 10-15 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together.
- For extra texture, consider adding some finely chopped green onions or a sprinkle of crispy bacon bits on top.
- If you prefer a smoother consistency, you can briefly pulse the ingredients in a food processor.
- Experiment with different seasonings like smoked paprika or a dash of hot sauce to customize the flavor profile.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
- For a lighter version, you can substitute Greek yogurt for some or all of the sour cream and mayonnaise.
