Bring peas, water, sugar and salt to a boil. Boil only a short time so peas are still green. Make a thickening of flour and milk. Stir into peas and bring back to a boil. It should be the consistency of gravy. Add more milk, if needed.

I have a favorite restaurant in the Jacksonville Florida area called "Jimmie's Buttermilk Chicken". They serve a wonderful (sweet) creamed peas as one of their side dishes. Does anyone have their recipe (or any real good recipe) for creamed peas (no potatoes, no mushrooms, no onions...)
INGREDIENTS:
* 1 to 1 1/2 c. fresh new peas
* 4 tsp. butter
* 4 tsp. all purpose flour
* 1 c. milk
PREPARATION:
Cook peas in water 8 to 15 minutes; drain.
Are there any recepies for creamed peas made with peas from a can?

My mother made a yummy version by making a medium white sauce, draining the peas, and mixing them. For the white sauce, make a roux with 2 T butter, 2 T flour. Stir in one cup milk, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir over medium-low heat until smooth and creamy, and stir in the peas. Heat through, and serve.
