    SWISS CHARD RECIPE: learntocook.com/vegetables/how...
    Ingredients:
    1 large bunch of fresh Swiss chard
    1 small clove garlic, sliced
    2 Tbsp olive oil
    2 Tbsp water
    Pinch of dried crushed red pepper
    1 teaspoon butter
    Salt
    Method:
    1. Rinse out the Swiss chard leaves thoroughly. Remove the toughest third of the stalk, discard or save for another recipe (such as this Swiss chard ribs with cream and pasta). Roughly chop the leaves into inch-wide strips.
    2. Heat a saucepan on a medium heat setting, add olive oil, a few small slices of garlic and the crushed red pepper. Sauté for about a minute. Add the chopped Swiss chard leaves. Cover. Check after about 5 minutes. If it looks dry, add a couple tablespoons of water. Flip the leaves over in the pan, so that what was on the bottom, is now on the top. Cover again. Check for doneness after another 5 minutes (remove a piece and taste it). Add salt to taste, and a small amount of butter. Remove the swiss chard to a serving dish.

    I just made this dish because I have an abundance of swiss chard and beet leaves in my garden and I am literally amazed at how delicious it turned out! Even my 13 year old grandson agreed on the rich taste it has, thank you now I have an extra way to take advantage of my growing gardening produce.

    Personally I would have added the garlic first. In this recipe the garlic was added too late for the size chunks used... that is unless you like biting into hard raw pieces of garlic.

      sirCULTURE ... I wonder if Garlic Powder can be replaced for the sliced/chunks of fresh garlic? I didn't have any fresh garlic to slice up on hand so I had to use garlic powder as a substitute. Same with the Red Pepper. No fresh on hand but do have Crushed Red Pepper (seasoning) so I've used that instead and just sprinkled a very little because it's so hot and spicy! Hope this will all work as substitutes.

    It would have been more flavorful if he had sauteed the garlic first before adding the Swiss chard. The flavor is absorbed in the oil and transfers to the vegetables. Coconut oil also gives it a great flavor! Maybe I should do a video called "in the kitchen with Marsha". I love cooking! So far with Swiss chard, I mostly add it to my Nutri-Bullet juicer with berries and seeds to make a very healthy drink.

      ("Fermented Tofu" can be bought from Chinese or Vietnamese Groceries . Bring a long its picture than you will get help
