PERFECT SOUTHERN GREENS (KALE, BEET, COLLARD GREENS ...



Perfect Southern Greens (Kale, Beet, Collard Greens ... image

This recipe yields the best tasting greens I have ever eaten! I have yet to have a batch of bitter greens when cooked this way. This recipe has the potential to change the minds of green-haters and may even bring about a cute southern accent. Blanching the greens before adding to the slow cooker helps remove the natural bitterness. I usually make it with kale and beet greens but other greens work as well. The greens pair well with pilsner or an off-dry riesling, especially if you use the balsamic vinegar.

Total Time 4 hours 10 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 4 hours

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 bunch kale
1 bunch beet leaves (collards, mustard, turnip) or 1 bunch other greens (collards, mustard, turnip)
1 large onion, sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 jalapeno peppers, minced (discard seeds for less heat)
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 cup cubed ham (I used prepackage mini cubes)
3 slices bacon
2 1/2 cups water (more if needed)
salt and pepper
balsamic vinegar (optional)

Steps:

  • Tear greens into large pieces and discard the thick vein. Add greens to a pot of boiling salted water (I use kosher salt). Let boil for about 6 minutes. Drain and Rinse.
  • While the greens are boiling, preheat a heavy skillet with olive oil, add onion and garlic; sauté until onions are lightly brown, add minced jalapeno peppers and cook for an additional minute or two.
  • Put the sautéed onions in the slow-cooker then add the drained greens, ham, bacon, crushed red pepper and water.
  • Cook on high for 4 hours or until greens are tender.
  • Serve with balsamic vinegar, optional.
