Collards Supreme
- 1 bunch fresh collard greens (about 14-16 ounces or 8-10 large leaves)
- 34 cup water
- 2 tablespoons golden balsamic vinegar
- 1 12 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (or 2 TBSP if your bunch is extra-large)
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds (optional)
- Wash collard greens and tear leaves from stems, in chunks about 3-4 inches wide.
- Place in kettle with the water, cover, and cook on medium heat until tender, about 15 minutes, or to your preference.
- Drain collards, then use a knife and fork to cut the whole mess of greens into squares about 2 inches square.
- (This is just to make the greens more bite-sized and manageable.
- ).
- Remove greens to serving dish (Or, if the cook is serving directly to the plates, wait until after the next two steps.
- ).
- Pour the golden (or white) balsamic vinegar all over the greens, and stir a bit to distribute it evenly among the greens.
- Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds if desired.
- If the cook is serving directly to plates, wait to sprinkle the sesame seeds until after the greens are on the plate, then garnish each serving with a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds.
