As a person who know her greens, I am only reviewing this recipe for the novice cook. Please use common sense with seasonings. This recipe is waaaaaaaay off the mark, but they are necessary to make good greens. Just add to taste. Also, no bellpepper or basil ever goes into good southern greens. I have read a lot of soulfood cookbooks as well as know great southern cooks that would cringe at this recipe. Lastly, use much more pork than this recipe says. The key to good greens is having the water taste like the ham or pork from the water you cook them with. So parboil the meat for at least an hour to flavor it and then add your greens and seasonings. Don't over water your greens or else they will be water lodged which is not good eats. Sorry to rate this without actually using this recipe, but I could not help myself because I knew this recipe was way off the mark.

I have not tried this recipe, but using common sense, I know 1/2 cup of black pepper is wrong. may they meant 1/2 tsp or even TBL (if you want it spicy is enough.

I made this recipe following the written directions exactly. I would not make it again without adjusting the proportions of beef base, seasoned salt and pepper. Also, I remember collard greens from my childhood. They were never cooked with green peppers, but pickled pepper juice or pickled pepper relish was added at the table. This recipe has potential, but the seasoning as written is NOT correct. DO NOT use the directions as written.

WHILE READING THIS RECIPE I NOTICED WE HAVE TO USE 1 1/4 CUP OF BLACK PEPER AND 1 1/4 CUP OF SALT FOR 2 1/2 POUNDS OF COLLARD. i FEEL THAT THIS MUST ME A MISTAKE, iT IS TOO MUCH BLACK PEPPER TO PUT IN 2 1/2 POUNDS OF COLLARD GREEN. HAS ANYONE TRIED THIS RECIPE YET, YOUR ADVISE IS TRULY APPRECIATED, FROM HARLEM, NY
