Think of "greens" like money, but instead of wanting stacks of it, you really want it to be dark as possible. Why? Because the darker the more nutrie-- look? Didn't you pay attention in high school?</div><div><br /></div><div>Let me break it down for you as simply a I possibly can:</div><div><ol><li>Buy a bunch of kale or collard greens, or a "Southern Greens" mix from the store (Trader Joe's sells it, at least)</li><li>Wash it, unless you have a secret death wish.</li><li>Cut out the thickest part of the stems off (don't hurt yourself), so that you most just have the leaves remaining.</li><li>Cut the leaves into strips unless you bought it pre-cut (duh)</li><li>Heat a pan with a tiny bit of olive oil. Let it get nice and hot for a few minutes before you put anything in it. <i>Try</i> to be patient.</li><li>Throw the greens in.</li><li>Add a little bit of salt.</li><li>Let them singe up a bit, you know, so the edges look a little crispy. Turn them over a couple of times in the process.</li><li>After a few minutes, or longer if you like them crispier, remove and eat.</li></ol><div>I'm sure you can at least figure out that last bit.</div></div><div><br /></div><div>You can also try leftover bacon grease instead of olive oil, but only use a little bit. Unless you want to get fatter than you already are.</div>Brockhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06925261043161084712noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6828495778224609164.post-86763434061397468072011-05-07T22:29:00.000-07:002011-05-07T23:39:03.476-07:00Let me try to explainThere are, like, a million cooking blogs out there, if you haven't heard. A lot of them are worth reading (if you you can manage that). They mostly feature fancy recipes inspired by French cuisine with an added twist of Americana -- that "New American" crap that Yelp seems to think is so much the rage.<br /><div><br /></div><div>This blog isn't one of them. This blog if for <i>you</i>, who hardly knows a spoon from a fork. Hopefully you can learn a thing or two from here and not starve to death because of your incompetence. Good luck.</div>Brockhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06925261043161084712noreply@blogger.com0
