Pigeon peas/4 recipes

Excellent bread. Nice, light texture and good crust. I will add more caraway next time, though, as we really like that flavor. I doubled the recipe to make a large loaf, and it worked fine. I usually just use my machine for the kneading process and than finish the loaf by hand, but let the machine do the whole thing this time, since I was busy all day. Made the house smell great, and was perfect with a steaming bowl of split pea soup! Thanks for this keeper.

This Greek stye salad uses quartered cherry tomato, after sitting for half an hour, spin most of the juice out, which makes a not watery salad, then reduce the juice with other spices to create a tangy dressing, and the black olives, cucumbers and feta cheese together create this flavorful, succulent, and refreshing salad.
