Cooking With Greens

I usually use a hambone when cooking any "green" like that. Then I just do the simple, sauteed onions, garlic, chicken broth and hambone (and some leftover ham) and cook those greens until they're the way you like them (of course salt/pepper). I like mine to still have bite/chew to them. I'm not big on the cooked till slimey type.


I've done it this way with both Kale and Chard.

I also love, love, love my kale just sauteed in olive oil, garlic and onions (s/p). It gets as tender as you want it and we just woof it down. My MIL will make it like this and sometimes add either celery or apples to the mix.
