Hadn't had this Southern Country Poke Sallet since I was a little girl and my grandma used to make it. When I saw it in the country I was inspired to make this old fashioned dish. One thing about poke sallet .... you can't buy it, it grows wild, it's FREE!
I was talking to my 87 year old grandmother today and she was talking about how much she loved poke salad. She grew up in the country in Hazelhurst, MS and her grandma used to make it for her. We googled it because I’ve never heard of it before, this video came up and we were able to watch it together. Thank you. ❤️
Wow! I haven’t had these since I was a kid. My dad use to go out by abandoned railroad tracks to pick them. Then my mom would clean them real good and fry them up in a skillet with eggs. They are so delicious. Thanks for sharing Meso
Love the memories Brian. Thanks for watching and be blessed.
I am making it for the first time today. Excited to see how you make it.
Hey Miso...I'm from the Carolinas, and in my area, my grandma, my mom, my aunt, and basically every woman I know cooks it in fatback grease, and use onions and scallions, and when the poke sallet is almost ready, we add a beaten egg over it and cook it.
If you pair the greens with fried chicken or pork chops, macaroni and cheese, cornbread, and potato salad...you are in heaven.
As usual, you did a spectacular job!
Thanks Leo, nothing I can say except you know your poke sallet facts. You are totally correct. I thought I would just show this dish. I had no idea so many people would know about it and have eaten it. Quite a surprise! Thanks for your support sweetie and be blessed.
@MesoMakingIt Sure wish people would do their homework and stop calling it "POLK"! 😢😅
Yum
This s the way my grandmother made Poke Salad!! She I’d not add eggs…..
This stuff grows wild and free. We may be eating a lot more poke salad as these food prices keep rising. Blessings.
I'm from Arkansas and now live in Michigan. CAN NOT find Poke Wallet anywhere. I've even googled it. Sure miss it with a big pan of cornbread.
Sallet not wallet.
hmmmmmm sounds good. You can order seeds on the internet/amazon and They are very low maintenance. Thanks for watching Blessed.
salet and salad are not the same thimg. Salet is cooked greens. An old term. Salad is modern term for mixed raw vegetables.
you won't be sorry. they are delicious. Blessings
Can I buy from you
Can't buy, they grow wild. thanks for watching.
Hell Noooooo. ...it's fucking poison 😮😮😮😮
Live with scrambled eggs
Yes, you are right. I meant to scramble with egg at the very end of the video but I forgot to include that. Thanks for watching Latika and be blessed.
I remember eating this with my Grandmother and it was delicious along with some cornbread, what a memory.
You're a beautiful soul. If you ain't got enough people to eat your food then Ill take a plane ride. Lol. Southern food should be its own unique category like Italian, Indian, japanese, French, etc etc etc. There is no "American" food.
A lot of the time I do have leftovers but they don't hang around long. Someone is always there to finish them off. I appreciate you Bilb and your kind words. Thanks for watching.
It's been forever and a day...at least 25 years. I really miss foraging for poke weed. I love them with eggs.
I loved them as a child. I remember going to pick them as a kid with my siblings and helping my mom and grandmother prepare them. They would mix them in with greens after they cooked them. I grew up in the south. We use to go pick berries also. Childhood memories ❤️❤️
I remember picking berries. I grew up in a small town in Texas. Loved the polk salad and berry cobbler😍😍
I’m from the upstate of South Carolina I kept asking my mom for some and she finally brought me some today ..I’m eating my poke salad as I watch your video 🥰
I just ordered seeds to grow in my area and natural garden idea
If there is any pointers I would love to know
I am in Washington state
I just noticed some poke weed coming up, so happy you blessed this day and posted this!
I wash mine seven times before cooking. That's the way my Grandma taught me.
Just found out we’ve got a big plant of poke weed growing outside our house so I’m using this recipe tonight! Best recipe video ever.
Good day Meso, thanks again for inviting us to your kitchen and sharing another great recipe 👍
Oh boy,,, if this woman had a restaurant,,, she cooks EXACTLY like I like...
Oh, and her vibe, smh,,, ain't no better...
Thanks M Here, I appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment. Blessings
My Grandma made this with eggs for is. It was so good. She says poke salad grew tall in Arkansas where she's from. I don't think they are found here in Lubbock Texas. Thanks for sharing.
POKE SALLET!!!!! Yes!! Cook - Rinse- Cook- Rinse! And pan fry!!!! Memories! 💖
You are so right Ms. Okra n Tomatoes! Thanks for taking the time to comment and be blessed.
You cook like Bob Ross paints.
My mom used to cook them when I was a child. I never forgot the taste and love them then. Such wonderful memories!!
I was wondering if anyone used peppers and onions. My mom swears u can only use the green stemmed onion. Bout to cook mine more your way. Thanks
That Polk salad looks good.. I found some on the side of the highway last year. Had to get me some..
More people need to be eating simple home cooking just like this especially with the price of groceries being so high.
No that is how a classy southern bell cooks real food.
Thank you ma'am for showing us this recipe.
My MOM (RIP) was from Mississippi and every summer we ate Polk Salad greens. Thank you for sharing THIS🙏🏿
You are so welcome! Some of the greatest memories about loved ones who have passed involve food. We honor them when we remember. Many blessings and thanks for watching.
OhMyGoodness 😊 for 1, do you know I just went looking for you on here today, and rewatched your banana pudding, and 2 I was just thinking yesterday about poke sallet bc my mother use to make it for my beloved grand father(her father) and she would top it off with sliced boil eggs oh wowww the aroma of that poke sallet was amazing and tasted so good😊 I hope you're doing well and you look so nice. Thank you for sharing. You made my night, thank you😘💕💕💕💕
Ree, you made my day just reading this. To think that you would come looking for me makes me feel happy! And the poke sallet thing YES this is divine order, I believe. Thanks for your love and support and I love you right back. Blessings
Too many ingredients for a salad.
My grandmother made them for me all the time. I believe I'll make some this spring to honor her.
My grandmother used to cook this too
I glad someone knows the 'correct name' even tho I've never eaten any ! lol I
Very interesting and dangerous Poke Sallet green can be..I will avoid eating...However Meso you made the recipe look very delicious. Thank you for sharing this down home recipe/❤️❤️
It's not poisonous if you know how to cook it, follow the directions #doyourreach😊
OMG! I haven't had this since i was a child. My mother used to go out and pick some and she would cook them. They were delicious. I miss those times in the country😎😎😍
Oh wow! I love the memories that go with old recipes too.
In the video, after she wash the greens, I thought, " is she gonna make patties out of the greens but she began to squeeze the extra water from the greens...a light bulb moment. I think I that I would have put them in the skillet with all the herbs and seasonings. I've never thought about it (🗣️one way or another)👀😁👈🏿
Good job,you have the most pleasant voice. Ive got several places on my property where it couldn't be thicker this year. I've just cooked my second batch this yr and can probably make it 3 or 4 more times this year. I've had several people mention putting scrambled eggs in it so I did this time. I'm gonna try it your way next. Thank you.

Thank you for this video. Someone pointed out that I have poke salet growing in my front yard.
I don't know ANYTHING about them but the mini tree is too pretty to cut so I never did.
Thank you so much for this video.
I still have alot to learn because they told me when the berries are present, their poisonous.
Thank you for this wonderful video. I am a country girl and we put eggs in the poke sallet after we put the sallet in the bacon grease. Let that get hot add the eggs. Just stir and scramble all the ingredients together.
This video makes me want to walk around my yard and get those young tender leaves and make some good poke sallet!!
Thank you!!
When my grandmother passed, I wasn't able to get any of her cookbooks and I never learned how to make this dish. Thank you for bringing a little quality of life from my childhood back to me
My grandmothers and my mom used to cook poke salad. I tasted and didn't like it. Been on many poke salad picking excursions in Ga.
Love it. I been wanting to find some. Afraid I will. Pick the wrong thing. Lol
I've never had it but my mom use to talk about trying to find it in my grandmother's yard in Mississippi.
You can eat that 😮 there is so much in KY
Yes, bring yours to me. lol Blessings
Just made it. Turned out great. So delicious. Thank you
Brought back memories of good taste and good times, thank you.
I gotta do this, I like your style Meso
Thanks Meso! Looks good!!
But didn’t u boil and squeeze out all the nutrients. Love the jalapeños with the seeds.
No honey, I boiled out what would be "poison" to your body. Can cause severe diarrhea and in large amounts even death or near death.
You did that!!! ❤
Hey Meso! Hope you are well. l never heard of this but it looks good!
Well hello Mz D what a nice sight for sore eyes. So good to see you and glad you enjoyed the video. What I think is interesting is poke sallet is not sold in any store it grows everywhere in the south (in the woods, yard, by the highway .... etc.) Thanks for hollering at me I always appreciate your support. I pray that all is going well with you and family. Peace and blessings to you.
Looks so good❤️❤️
I used to sale this by the bag full as a child in Arkansas.
Most overlooked and underappreciated veggie in the U.S. I've never bought Poke sallet. Wish I could find somebody selling it. Thanks for watching. Blessings.
I thought Polk salad was poisonous
Racel, not prepared and cooked properly it is. You don't eat the stems (any red part) and after cleaning you wash, boil, rinse, boil, rinse, boil, then a good final rinse, water should be clear. I don't know if it will actually kill you but I do know it will give you some major diarrhea if not cleaned properly. Thanks for watching and be blessed.
I have sooooo much poke weed in my yard, and my neighbor said that her grandma used to make it but it was tricky to make, maybe because of the toxic stems. Thank you so much for this, I feel more comfortable making it!!
Hey Chasity, also remember to boil and rinse, boil and rinse, boil and rinse 3 times (water should be clear not green) and you will be good to go. Blessings my dear.
This brought so much peace to my soul. Boiling my poke right now ❤
Really enjoyed watching you make this recipe !! I wonder if "poke sallet" was originally "pork salad".... because of the bacon?
Very good but not necessary
As a child, I ate this often at my Maternal Grandmother's home. Usually it was scrambled (fried) with eggs, but was never served at breakfast, usually at lunch or dinner (supper,) and usually accompanied with fried potatoes and crispy fried hog jowl. It also reminds me of my Grandmother's wilted lettuce. If you come from a rural/farm background, you know what wilted lettuce is. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
Baby you are old school southern for sure. I love it and yes I know about these meals. How did your grandmother make her wilted lettuce? Blessings
