Simmer4 hours for collards? Do they boil the entire time?
Her mom made these magical little corn fritters that were more like “pancakes”. They were just wonderful. I think my first meal at her mom’s house after we had been dating two weeks was the reason I asked her to marry me a week later..You will also need to grease up another cast iron skillet and cook a cake of corn bread in the oven while the collards are going through the process.

Love collards, and always go heavy on the vinegar. What I did not realize until last time I made them was just how huge a difference it makes to take whole collards, remove the stems, and rough chop vs buying the bagged stuff that still has the stems on them. I can't really describe the difference, but the whole collards are always incredible and the pre-chopped stuff tasted like absolute dog water.
off to the ignore list you goMost of my family loves collards along with other greens. I enjoy the smell when there cooking but can't stand them. Same with spinach and other such rabbit food. You might as well grab a handful of the slimy trimmings under your lawnmower and eat that it's the exact same thing. And throwing any sort of meat in there is a complete waste of good meat. But to each there own. I'll eat all kinds of green beans and peas and such but just can't do the leafy stuff. I do like cabbage if it's deep fried in a shrimp or pork egg roll lol

Along with the vinegar, got to add some heat! I prefer crushed peppers but in a pinch, hot sauce will get me by.Love collards, and always go heavy on the vinegar.

They never get a chance to really live life....We were at the Farmers Market in Raleigh today and the guy who normally has “baby” collards had none. This was new to me, baby collards.
Would I need to feel guilty cooking them, like the veal thread?
