SAUTEED COLLARD GREENS
Feel free to substitute turnip greens. This recipe has been posted to accompany my Recipe #373109 and Recipe #373203...they complement each other so well! But this recipe is a nice alternative to the traditional southern cooked collard greens loaded with bacon fat. If you like your greens more tender, you'll need to increase the cooking time and add more stock. Cook according to your taste!

SAUTEED COLLARD GREENS WITH GARLIC
Collard greens are normally associated with a long, slow cooking time, but this method requires only 10 minutes of steaming. Sauteing the leaves with garlic first balances the vegetable's bitterness. Pull or cut out the thick stems, and wash the leaves well before using.

Steps:
- Collard greens: In a large deep skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until light golden brown, about 2 minutes. Add the collard greens, beer, and salt and cook, stirring constantly, until wilted and tender, and the beer is slightly reduced, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and serve.
Tips:
- Choose Fresh Collard Greens: Select collard greens with vibrant, deep green leaves. Avoid any leaves that appear wilted or yellowed.
- Wash and Trim Collard Greens Thoroughly: Rinse the collard greens under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Trim the tough stems from the leaves.
- Use High-Quality Butter: Opt for unsalted butter with a high fat content (82% or higher) for the best flavor and texture.
- Caramelize the Miso Butter Patiently: Stir the miso butter constantly over medium-low heat until it turns a light golden brown. This process may take several minutes, but it's worth it for the rich, nutty flavor.
- Don't Overcook the Collard Greens: Sauté the collard greens just until they are tender but still retain a slight crunch. Overcooking will make them mushy.
- Season to Taste: Adjust the seasoning of the collard greens to your liking. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or even a squeeze of lemon juice.
