In the Changing Course e-class, one of the guests makes a living in New England selling bean cakes from his native Africa. They are made of black eyed peas. He said there are five ingredients, but he did not say what they were. Do you know any other ways to make bean cakes? This recipe sounds very good. Will make it this week ! ! ! ! !
