Pot Liquor (Likker) Soup image

This is as Southern as it gets. But the recipe is made quicker by using canned products and prepackaged greens. For New Years, substitute black-eyed peas, and you'll have your green and peas tradition! Serve with nice thick slices of cornbread.

Yield 19 cups

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (16 ounce) package fresh collard greens, chopped
2 lbs ham steaks, chopped
2 tablespoons hot sauce
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 medium onions, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
6 red potatoes, diced
3 (14 1/2 ounce) cans chicken broth (you can use your own stock if you'd like)
2 (16 ounce) cans field peas, drained
2 (16 ounce) cans crowder peas, drained
2 cups water
1/2 cup vermouth
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Bring collard greens and water to cover to a boil in a large Dutch Oven. Remove from heat; drain. Repeat the process if you are boiling in batches.
  • Toss together the ham and hot sauce; cook in hot oil in the Dutch Oven over medium-high heat 8 to 10 minutes or until browned (while the collards are draining). Add the onion and garlic; saute until tender.
  • Stir in greens, potato, and remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, stirring occasionally for 45 minutes.

This soup is a great way to warm up on a cold day. It's also very affordable and easy to make. I like to add a few extra vegetables to the soup, such as carrots and celery.

This soup was surprisingly delicious! I was a bit skeptical at first, but the flavors all came together perfectly. The pot liquor added a unique and savory depth to the broth, and the dumplings were light and fluffy. I'll definitely be making this ag
