How to Cook Collard Greens


These women are amusing, but they have
done a terrible thing.
They poured the pot likker down the
drain! There was a collander in the sink. Horrible.
Shame!
All that valuable nutrition and cornbread
sopping wasted.
I was impressed by the way Cynthia,one
of the cooks, pulled the stems out. We
prefer cutting our stems out.
Those cooks chopped the greens after
they cooked them. We always chop
ours first.
They had tofu with their collards; we have
not tried that yet.
Notice the way they cooled the collards
with icy cold water after cooking to make
them pretty and green. Most of us
Southerners don't care whether our
greens are bright green.
The members of the family promote
organic whole foods grown locally. We
believe in that too. (Our collard patch is
in the front yard.)Go here to see a funny and informative YouTube video of collard cooking.
