    Great video! Another reason to use vinegar to clean any greens is that it tenderizes thick greens and helps to remove bitterness.

  • @autumnHisRayne

  • @comeoninmycoop
    @comeoninmycoop 3 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Beautiful job! I usually cut mine in ribbons and then wash them. When they are smaller, you really can get in between there and get out the dirt and sand. It does make it harder to retrieve them from the water but so much dirt is in the bottom of the sink.

  • @araya52
    @araya52 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I just made my collards I throw all my ingredients in the pot. I pro-boil my smoked Turkey necks, while they are cooking I wash and prep my greens. I clean them in the sink a good four times to make sure there's no grit or dirt. I do just like you when it comes to cutting them, I ripped them and then put them in the pro-boil with the smoke Turkey. I cut half an onion, a little tenderizers, I don't have to use salt if I used unseasoned tenderizer, butter, sugar, chicken grease, from fried chicken, vinegar, onion powder, garlic powder, put the lid on and just them them cook for an hour, hour 1/2 and make my cornbread, and viola!! I can eat greens every week. Love your video!!!

    Brings back so many fond memories of my own granny who grew collard greens and herbs in her backyard and prepared this recipe with turkey necks. She and my grandfather loved eating this meal with cornbread, black-eyed peas, and a glass of buttermilk. Thank you for the nostalgia this video brought to me.

      I think it might do you good to count your blessings. Many people only dream about having the kind of cushy life that affords them the nerve to complain about such 1st world problems as how long a recipe video takes. I personally enjoy the length and wouldn't mind if it were longer but if I did mind, I'd just hush about it.

    The pot liquor as our Southern ancestors called it 😊, is good for colds and sore throats y'all. So remember that this Fall and Winter. Wherever I get sick like that, I fix me some greens and drink that pot liquor by the glass full, and I'm good to go in a day or two! 😎 It's like a toxin remover.

  • @carlamoore2710
    @carlamoore2710 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'm so glad you put this recipe up, some people don't remove the stems they just cut the greens and I just hate that! Also my mother turkey wings or turkey legs a little bit of cracked pepper sometimes she'll put a whole jalapeno pepper in the greens and keep it whole so that it flavors the greens but they're not burning hot. I love hot water cornbread with my greens For some reason I can't eat pan cornbread with greens I can eat them with beans but not greens I know that's weird but that's how I am.
