I have perfected mustard greens...but I am not a fan of collards or turnips.

Anyone have a good collard recipe or a trick? I would love to have the same love for them as I do mustard greens.

My mustard greens are better than B.J's

Just cook turnips down just like potatoes. My 2 favorites are turnips smothered down with smoked sausage and onions or turnips cooked with carrots and a roast in oven.

I just sautéed some collards in a little olive oil, and then added a cup or so of Tasso stock with come salt and pepper. Cooked them a bit more and they were awesome .

All greens taste the same to me. Gotta have some sport pepper vinegar to finish and cornbread.

Like OG, I mix mustard and collards - the taste of that mixture appeals to me.

Turnips - wash well, add salt pork, ham or a prokchop, (you want the fat, so if no pork, add a tablespoon of veg oil), a teaspoon of sugar and a half teaspoon of salt to about four to six cups of turnips. If I have the root, I cut them in pieces and add them too. Cover with water, bring to a boil, turn down heat to a low boil, cover and cook for maybe an hour (slowly). add a little more water if needed.

Eat with cornbread.

By the way, I cook my mustard and collards this same way.

Don't forget to use a pinch of sugar.
