    I think the focus should definitely shift from kale to collard greens, which are tender and sweet. Collard greens are a pleasure to eat--unlike kale.

    • @katl8825
      @katl8825 3 года назад +2

      As a lover of both I have to disagree, but I will happily agree collard greens are the best for this kind of prep. To me kale is more of a sautéed kind of thing.

      My wife grew kale for the first time this year. The difference between store bought and home grown is eye opening,truly delicious. Love collards also,both are great,especially the kale from your own garden.As for collards,I even use the ribs,they soften nicely and are quite flavorful.

Save the juice for cornbread dipping, cold glass of buttermilk, big chunk of raw onion, makes a small meal or big snack as we waste very little.

    I have been on the record for years I’ve seen I hate cooked greens. I will eat spinach, kale, and others raw or cooked into a dish but not cooked in a pot. I think that’s because growing up the rule was that you cooked greens until they were puréed in the pot. I think I’m gonna have to cook me some collards. Those look good

    • @aidanwarren4980

      Collards definitely hold up the best to a long cook time. Even after a nice long simmer (or 45 minutes in a pressure cooker) they have a satisfyingly meaty bite. You can also just chop them fine and sauté with spices and garlic, in which case they’re almost crunchy.
