Ingredients
- 8 ounces slab bacon, cut into lardons
- 3 tablespoons duck fat or lard
- 2 cloves garlic, sliced
- 2 shallots, sliced
- 2 fresno chiles, seeded and sliced
- 1 pound hardy greens, such as Swiss chard, collards, rapini, or beet greens, stems trimmed
- 1/4 cup sherry vinegar
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1/4 cup honey
Directions
Heat a 6-quart casserole over medium heat. Add the bacon and duck fat and cook for five minutes to render the fat from the bacon. Add the garlic, shallot, and chiles and cook until softened but not browned, about 2 minutes. Add the greens, reduce the heat to low, add the vinegar, and season with salt and pepper. Cook the greens down until they're tender, about 1 hour. Drizzle with the honey and mix well.

I don't mean to be rude. I'm just a plain old pretty good cook and I make something almost exactly like this with chard without the duck fat. That's why I'm rating this high. I use rice wine vinegar. Sometimes I put feta on it. Does the duck fat make all that much difference or is this just fancy smancy? I wouldn't even know where to buy duck fat, and my freezer and pantry is packed with all sorts of stuff. I'm sorry, and maybe I'm wrong and should run out immediately for duck fat.
