Cold, Tangy Gently Sweet/Sour Sauteed Greens
- 2 cups water
- 12 onions, chopped or 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
- 4 lbs greens
- 2 -3 tablespoons sugar
- 14 ounce artificial sweetener
- 4 tablespoons vinegar
- garlic salt
- pepper
- In a heat proof measuring cup, pre-measure sugar and vinegar and garlic salt.
- In skillet saute onion in oil.
- When onion is partly done, add raw washed stemmed greens.
- Add water to bottom of skillet where sauteed onion is and let greens steam, covered for 5 minutes at medium (soft boil) heat.
- Flip the greens and onion once during this process.
- Spatula and tongs together work well for this.
- When greens have steamed on both sides and are reasonably soft ( not overcooked), remove greens/onion from hot liquid and set aside in covered bowl (so vitamins dont escape with the steam).
- Let them (greens and onion) cool down part way.
- In meantime, pour still warm but not hot pot liquor (green juice) into the heatproof measuring cup wherein you have already placed the sugar and vinegar and garlic salt.
- Stir all until thoroughly mixed.
- Taste test to see that sweet/sour are balanced and not too strong.
- Remove cooked greens from covered bowl and on serving platter slice them into bite sized pieces.
- Be sure to add in all the cooked onions over the top.
- Spoon sweet/sour vinaigrette over greens and cooked onion.
- Set in refrigerator to chill for at least two hours.
- Best eaten cold, but can be eaten right when it is finished too.
- Toss.
- Enjoy.
