2008 Original: Since greens are a traditional way to bring on financial fortune in the new year, I half expected to hold this recipe, if it turned out, til next year. But the collard greens turned out so well, were so easy and tasted soo good, I decided not to wait.
Besides, if the pile of collards at my local supermarket on Monday is a prediction, it should be easy to find collard greens for the next few days. Plus, if there's a season for hearty greens like collards, kale and chard, it's right now and through the next couple of months -- one of the few fresh vegetables right in the middle of winter.
2011 Update: Wow. What a knockout recipe once the greens are cooked until soft and almost buttery. I could have eaten the whole pot myself.
