This is a great video. Might I add that I like to let mine soak in a vinegar-water mixture that covers them for a about 30 mins- you’d be amazed out how dirty the water is even after you’ve cleaned them.
Thanks I appreciate it cuz I sure was like let me look online and see who can show me how to clean them but because of you I got through them and they are clean. 🙏💁
What are the whys about cleaning. What does the salt do? Does it season it at this point? What does the vinegar do? Do you rinse ALL of the salt and vinegar off? This is just basic stuff that I don't quite understand. Have you ever eaten greens prepared by someone who did not use this method? Can you tell the difference? I did read through some of the comments and saw some responses about the reason for salt (killing unseeable bugs)
Salt-helps remove dirt Vinegar- Helps with taste [in my opinion] I rinse all the salt off, and leave just a little vinegar before cooking them I've had many collard greens, and I've not known how they were prepared. Do they taste like mine? Not exactly, but I think it has more to do with how they cooked versus how they are prepared. Hope this was helpful ☺️
nice video, I notice little tiny eggs on the bottom of my leaves, do you just wash those off? Can I just use water without vinegar? Can you eat these RAW? TY again
I try to wash off as much as possible. The vinegar helps with the taste when cooking. Some people juice them, but I’ve personally never eaten them raw. 😊
👍🏾 I appreciate your tutorial, and I am a seasoned cook. But a forever student.🥰
as much as you appreciate the video I appreciate the view! forever grateful :)

How much vinegar?
@@Dwatts24111 I usually will use about a entire small bottle of vinegar between both sinks filled with water. So that’s a 16oz bottle or 8oz per sink.
@@thespaatreynolda2921 Thank you so much.
@@Dwatts24111 you’re most welcome!
Thank you for the video. I have never cooked collard greens. But I wanted to watch your video on how to wash and clean collard greens.

I have never seen collards sold as loose leaves as this shows. And I have cooked a lot of greens.
Maybe it’s a South thing? They sell them this way in Grocery stores in Tennessee.
Interesting. Although I live in Texas.
@@rubynelson1164 go to HEB. I buy them loose all the time.
@@Specialdunk1814 Must be going to wrong store. Lol
how do you encounter them if not in leaf an stem form?
Thank you so much! Very helpful! Quick and easy!
😀

Them people shoulda been ashamed selling them collards
It’s the GMO, which I recently noticed in the texture of green leafy vegetables.
Thanks, cooking collards for the first time... usually let my daughter prepare them but I moved away and I want some, so I have to do it myself! 🙄
You are so welcome!
strip them off the stem.
Thank you it helped.
Can you clean and cut them a day before cooking them?
of course! I think this makes it easier on you
Respectfully, them greens look sick with COVID I would've been returning them bad boys so fast😮
Thank you so much!!!!
You’re so welcome ☺️
Thank you
THANKS YOU GOODNESS 🌟❤️🖤💚🤎 FAMILY DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜,

Hi What's reason for salt?
It helps get the dirt off that you’ll sometimes see when you purchase greens☺️
@@Iamsharifachioma thanks
@@tristc6909 hi. Salt will also kill any bugs you might not see.
what if i dont white vinegar?
I feel like it helps with getting some of the bitterness out, so I can’t say because I’ve never cooked them with out this step.
Thanks...im a rookie
It's not worth it
Thank you
Thank You
