COLLARD GREENS WITH BACON



Collard Greens with Bacon image

Good ole country collard greens with bacon and onion. These are so hearty and satisfying, even those who say "I don't like greens" will eat these up! You might even get a "Wow!" after the first bite and a "not at all like I remember them tasting". You can eat them alone but they're best with hot buttered cornbread. Mustard and turnip greens are great this way too. Enjoy!

Time 1h35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

½ pound bacon ends and pieces
1 large white onion, chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
4 cups water
2 bunches collard greens, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Place bacon in a heavy pot and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until fat begins to render, about 5 minutes. Drain off 1/2 of the bacon grease.
  • Reduce heat to medium and add onion. Cook, stirring often, for about 5 minutes. Add garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper; cook and stir for 2 minutes.
  • Increase heat to high and immediately pour in 3 cups water. Bring to a boil, stirring to scrape up browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add chopped collard greens and 1 more cup of water. Bring back to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until greens are tender, about 1 hour.

SPRING GREEN SPAGHETTI CARBONARA



Spring Green Spaghetti Carbonara image

In 2018, I was working on a cookbook that I knew would be published in October 2020, one month before a contentious election. I thought, no matter what side of the political aisle you were on, you were going to be seriously stressed. (Little did I know that there would also be a global pandemic.) That's when I decided to make the cookbook all about comfort food. I wanted to include recipes for classics like tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches but to make them fresher, more delicious and easier to prepare. That's why I called my cookbook Modern Comfort Food. This Spring Green Spaghetti Carbonara is the essence of that idea. Classic pasta carbonara is made with lots of eggs, cheese and pancetta. It's delicious but it's also pretty rich. I lightened it up by adding fresh spring vegetables like snow peas, asparagus and English peas plus lots of scallions and chives. I also find that the classic dish doesn't have that "edge" that I like - a vinegary or tart flavor that really makes all the other ingredients pop - so I added the zest and juice of a whole lemon. Don't worry; I kept all the pancetta and lots of freshly grated Parmesan cheese! This is a delicious dinner: a classic Italian dish, updated, and so comforting on a cold night!

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 ounces spaghetti, such as De Cecco
1/2 pound snow peas, julienned lengthwise
1 cup shelled fresh peas (1 pound in the pod), or frozen peas
12 to 14 thin asparagus, bottom third discarded and tips sliced in 2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons good olive oil
8 ounces small-diced pancetta
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 extra-large eggs
2 extra-large egg yolks
3/4 cup freshly grated Italian Parmesan cheese, plus extra for serving
5 scallions, white and green parts, thinly sliced diagonally
1/4 cup minced fresh chives, plus extra for serving
Zest and juice of 1 lemon

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water with 2 tablespoons salt to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Reserve a cup of the pasta water, then add the snow peas, fresh peas and asparagus to the spaghetti and cook for 2 minutes longer. Drain the pasta and vegetables together.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a medium (10- to 11-inch) sauté pan over medium heat, add the pancetta and cook for 7 to 9 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned. Transfer the pancetta to a plate lined with paper towels and set aside.
  • While the pancetta cooks, fill a large bowl with the hottest tap water and set aside to heat the bowl. Just before you drain the pasta, pour the water out of the bowl. Put the cream, eggs, egg yolks and 1/4 cup of the reserved pasta water into the bowl and whisk to combine. Immediately, add the hot pasta and vegetables and toss with tongs for a full minute or two, until the pasta absorbs the sauce. Add enough reserved hot pasta water to keep the sauce creamy. Add the 3/4 cup Parmesan, the scallions, chives, lemon zest and juice, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper and toss well. Add the pancetta, sprinkle with salt and serve hot sprinkled with extra chives and Parmesan.
