Collards And Cornbread - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
2 bunches collard greens (turnip/mustard greens)
salt
water
2 ham hocks or 1 c. ham chunks
bacon drippings (add anytime you want)
Preparation
-
Wash greens thoroughly (2 to 3 times) to remove sand.
Take out and discard tough stems.
Put ham hocks or ham chunks in pot.
Add greens and fill half full with water.
Let greens come to a boil, then turn fire down and simmer 2 1/2 to 3 hours or until seasoned and tender.
Add salt according to taste when serving.
Lift greens out of water into a flat bowl and cut into bite size pieces with a sharp knife.
We like to sprinkle pepper sauce or vinegar on our plates.
