What is a Hoppin John?

 

Carolina peas and rice

 

Is it spicy? Where's the 'hoppin' come from?

 

It's a New Years tradition, like eating black eyed pease on New Year's Day for good luck. I'm not 100% where the name came from, but I thought it had something to do with slaves.

 

no one really knows where the name comes form,,,some say since it is comfort food that the pleasantries of Old Southerners would welcome anyone in to eat and would welcome them in by saying "Hop in John", like come on in..
I can say that cooking the field peas and rice together can be a challenge...some years comes out good some times gummy,sometimes too dry..but when its right its right, toss in a few ham hocks or smoked neckbones for seasoning

 

The first written recipe for Hoppin John appeared in The Carolina Housewife in 1847. Most food historians generally agree that Hoppin John is an American dish with African/French/Caribbean roots. There are many tales or legends that explain how Hoppin’ John got its name:

It was the custom for children to gather in the dining room as the dish was brought forth and hop around the table before sitting down to eat.

A man named John came “a-hoppin” when his wife took the dish from the stove.

An obscure South Carolina custom was inviting a guest to eat by saying, “Hop in, John”

The dish goes back at least as far as 1841, when, according to tradition, it was hawked in the streets of Charleston, South Carolina by a crippled black man who was know as Hoppin’ John.
