Southern-Style Greens
Ingredients
- 3½ to 4 pounds collard turnip or mustard greens (or a mixture)
- ½ pound lean salt pork or smoked ham hock
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 3 beef boullion cubes
- 8 cups water
- 1 tablespoon margarine
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Wash greens repeatedly until all grit is removed–it will take a lot of washing. Drain. Remove and discard large stems. Combine pork, sugar, bouillon cubes, water and margarine in a large soup pot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil 5 to 10 minutes. Add greens. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 1 1/2 hours or until greens are tender.
