New Potatoes Au Gratin - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 to 6 new potatoes
1/2 tsp. salt
dill or other seasoning (1/8 tsp. dry, 2 tsp. fresh)
1/2 c. water
1 c. cheese, grated
1/4 c. milk

Preparation

Greens (mustard, turnips, collard, kale, poke, dandelion, etc.) are best when cooked with meat.
Salt pork, ham hock, bacon ends or pork back and neck bones makes the \"pot likken\" extra good.
Put the meat on to boil while cleaning greens.
Cut or pinch off thick stems.
Wash and drain greens several times to remove dirt and grit.
A strong salt water solution helps to take the grit to the bottom.
Add greens to pot with meat; be sure liquid is boiling.
A small piece of red pepper may be added, also a whole onion.
Season to taste with salt.
(Some cooks add a touch of sugar.)
Cook until tender.
This will take from 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
Do not drain greens; herein lies most of the nutritious value of this food.
A pressure cooker may be used, if desired.
Serve with pepper sauce, pepper relish or spring onion along with cornbread and buttermilk.
