Southern Style Greens

Diane, our Southern Style Greens expert, says the secret is a mixture of the freshest greens from Gazy Brothers Farm at the local Farmer’s Market.

A make ahead staple, it tastes even better the second day!

And don’t throw away the liquid. We call that “pot liquor.” It has loads of flavor and nutrients. I pour into in a cup and drink it following the meal! Yum!

Directions:

  • Sauté chopped onions and garlic in a little olive oil.
  • Add chopped greens: kale, collards, mustard, or turnip (we used fresh Kale and Collards today)
  • Add low salt, organic chicken stock.
  • Bring to a boil.
  • Season with kosher or sea salt, black pepper, and a bit of crushed red pepper.
  • Cover and simmer for about an hour. Done!
