Recipe Introduction


Use whatever kind of greens you like with this recipe. I usually use a mix of turnip and collards.





List of Ingredients



• 6 c. water
  
• 1/4 lb. salt pork
  
• 1 lb. greens - rinsed VERY well and destemmed and torn into bite sized pieces
  
• 2 t. salt
  
• 1/2 t. white pepper
  






Instructions



1. Put water and salt pork in a big, heavy pot with a lid and bring to a boil. Turn down, cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
   
2. Add salt and pepper to the water and stir, then add greens, pushing them down into the simmering water with a spoon. When all the greens are in the pot, cover and simmer for an hour.
   






Final Comments


Serve with chopped fresh onion and CORNBREAD.
I do a couple of things differently: I cut the salt pork into pieces and saute them slowly for a few minutes before I add the water. And I think a few drops of hot sauce can't hurt.
Serves 4 - 6.
