  • lol, "nice sweet flavor"? before you boil, you need ham hock or salt pork in that water, salt, onion, garlic, maybe paprika, pepper, bacon, a little bit of sugar. some people like them spicy so some red pepper flakes should do the trick and a little vinigar. a little pepper sauce is good if you like them spicy. You have to cook these for at least 45 mins or an hour to get them right. gracious, where did you learn to cook collards?

  • @JefferyHunt don't knock it until you've tried it. These are fresh tasting and all the nutrients haven't been cooked out of them. Toss them with butter and vinegar. Nice.

  • I can't help but think that cooking collards this way would cause them to end up incredibly bitter. I thought they had to be cooked for long periods of time to reduce bitterness.

  • mugflub,

    give it a try. Tough mature collards will take longer, tender immature ones very little time. They do lose their bitterness without being boiled to death.

  • And by cooking your greens for hours you basically destroy all of the nutrients. Then those greens become pointless.

  • Screw cooked collard greens. Raw collard greens taste better, are packed with nutrients, and cleanses the liver compared to cooked collard greens. So when you harvest, clean and eat. Simple.

  • is that how u cook em, come by my house sweetei ;)

  • Aint never seen nothin lyke this!! U cant cook no green!! U messin these folks up I aint never seen someone cook no green for 5 min. 1 hour at least. U needa leave dem green alone!!

  • @cookusinterruptus hey, thanks for the response. With due respect, collards retain many nutrients when cooked and traditionally cornbread is used to sop the pot liquor. the nutrients cooked out of collards are in the pot liquor which is very tasty and nutritious due to the collards.

  • You guys are hilarious! I laughed when the daughter said her Mom turns in to a hippie around cops.

  • THIS BLOND GIRL LOOK SO STUPID, SHE LIKES TO SHOW OFF

  • Why didn't she cut these greens?

  • I only clicked on this because of the funny ass picture xD
