List of Ingredients
Turnip Greens and Corn Dodgers
3 lbs. turnip greens
4 cups water
1/2 lb. streak-of-lean meat
Salt to taste
1 tsp. sugar
1 1/2 cups cornmeal
Thoroughly wash the turnip greens. Place 1 1/2 cups water and streak-of-lean
meat in boiler and boil for 30 min. Place greens in separate boiler with 2
cups water and parboil for 7 min. Pour off this liquid to remove btterness.
Add greens to boiling meat and liquid. Salt to taste and cook for 45 min. to
1 hr. or until greens are tender. Add the tsp. of sugar. Remove turnip
greens fron stock. Prepare corn dodgers by taking 1 1/2 cups of cornmeal,
adding 4 tbsp. of boiling water (more if needed so that meal will stick
together), and shape by hand into small round balls so they will not fall
apart. Have the stock from the turnip greens at a rolling boil, drop the
cornballs in. Cook 15 min. When done, dodgers will be soft and pale green.
Serve with greens.
