2 bunches collard greens
2 bunches mustard greens
2 bunches turnip greens
3 tablespoons salt

Steps:

  • Pull the leaf portions of the collard, mustard, and turnip greens away from the tough stems, and discard the stems. Gently wash the greens in warm water to remove all soil and sand.

Scoop up the greens and allow to drain in a colander; discard used chicken broth. Do not rinse the greens.

Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until the greens are tender, stirring occasionally, 45 minutes to 1 hour.

MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE



Mustard Vinaigrette image

A generous spoonful of Dijon mustard makes this vinaigrette creamy and tart. Use the dressing with sturdy salad greens like romaine or with softer lettuces like Bibb lettuce or oak leaf. The dressing is too strong to work with baby salad greens or mesclun. It's also great with cooked vegetables like beets or broccoli and with grain salads.
