Sautéed Collard Greens With Caramelized Miso Butter Food

MISO GREENS

Steps:

• Stem and chop the kale and mustard greens, discarding half of the stems and chopping the rest. Combine the miso paste, Sriracha and 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the stems, cooking until tender, about 3 minutes. Add the chopped greens, pour the miso mixture over them and cook until the greens are tender, about 5 minutes.

SAUTEED COLLARD GREENS

Steps:

• To prepare the greens: cut away the tough stalks and stems from the collards and discard any leaves that are bruised or yellow. Fill the sink with water and salt, the salt helps to remove any impurities. Wash the collards thoroughly to remove the grit, 2 or 3 times, until the water runs clear. Dry thoroughly. Stack up several leaves and roll up lengthwise in a bundle, cut them into 1-inch ribbons. Repeat until all the leaves are shredded.
• Heat a large deep skillet over medium flame and coat with the oil. Add the garlic and saute for 2 minutes to soften. Add the greens and toss well with the oil and garlic. Pour in the chicken broth and cook for 45 minutes to 1 hour until the greens are wilted and tender; take care not to overcook. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

SAUTEED COLLARD GREENS

Steps:

• Wash greens thoroughly, making sure all dirt and grit have been removed.
• In a large saucepan, place collards in hot water for 3 minutes, remove and drain.
• In a large skillet, melt butter, then add onions and crushed red pepper flakes, saute.
• Once onions are tender, add collard greens and chicken stock to the pan.
• Cook on high heat, stirring occasionally for 5 to 7 minutes. Test a piece of the greens -- if you want yours more tender, cook longer, adding more stock or water to keep them from burning. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
