Chef John Fleer






List of Ingredients



• 2 tsp clarified butter
  
• 1/2 cup minced tasso (tasso is a spicy, Cajun-style cured pork)
  
• 2 Tbsp sweet red wine vinegar
  
• 2 Tbsp light brown sugar
  
• 2 large bunches of collards, ribs and stems removed, blanched, diced into 1-inch by 1-inch pieces
  
• 1 tsp salt
  
• 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
  






Instructions



1. Add clarified butter to a medium saute pan over medium-high heat. Add tasso and render for a few seconds.
   
   
2. Add the sweet red wine vinegar and brown sugar. As soon as the sugar dissolves, quickly add the collards, salt and pepper. Allow collards to warm completely through.
