Internet






List of Ingredients



• 2 pounds collard greens
  
• 2 pounds mustard greens
  
• 1/2 pound salt pork or smoked turkey, cut into 1-inch cubes
  
• 6 to 7 cups water
  
• 1 cup chopped celery
  
• 1 cup chopped onion
  
• 1/2 cup chopped green pepper
  
• 1 Tbsp sugar
  
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
  
• 1 tsp salt
  
• 1/4 to 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
  






Instructions



1. Cook salt pork 30 minutes in 6 to 7 cups water.
   
   
2. Trim away any braised or blemished spots on greens with a sharp knife. Wash the leaves in several changes of cold running water to remove all traces of dirt or sand.
   
   
3. Cut up and combine the greens in Dutch oven with remaining ingredients, including salt pork and water. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook until done or tender -- about 50 to 60 minutes.
