Wilted Mustard Greens Salad with Bacon
- 1/2 pound mustard greens, stems and center ribs cut out and discarded and the leaves cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-wide strips
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons mustard seeds
- 1 small onion, chopped fine
- 1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 slices of bacon, cooked until crisp and crumbled
- Wash the mustard greens, spin them dry, and put them in a large heatproof bowl.
- In a skillet heat the oil with the mustard seeds, covered partially to keep the seeds from popping out, over moderate heat for 2 to 4 minutes, or until the popping subsides, add the onion, and cook the mixture, stirring, until the onion is softened.
- Remove the skillet from the heat, stir in the vinegar, and bring the mixture to a boil.
- Drizzle the dressing immediately over the mustard greens and toss the salad.
- Add the bacon and salt and pepper to taste and toss the salad well.
