This recipe from chow.com used Swiss chard in the original, but I think the beet greens (same family, after all) will work beautifully. Easy, healthy, vegan. Love the idea of making a pesto with miso. You could add some daikon in here, too.
This recipe is from Charleston’s renowned chef, Sean Brock. A little complicated but oh, so delicious.
Last week we had an apple-cheddar pie recipe. This week it’s apples and hot pepper jelly. The idea came from Moore Farms and Friends, written in their style.
Adapted from a recipe in “The Farm: Rustic Recipes for a Year of Incredible Food” by Ian Knauer. Long list of ingredients, simple directions and it will use up some of those jalapeños!
Elizabeth Schneider, the author of “Vegetable from Amaranth to Zucchini: The Essential Reference” (William Morrow & Company, 2001) loves root vegetables nested in their greens. She does something similar with hareuki turnips.
I’m pretty certain I’ve never offered a chicken liver recipe in these notes. But why not? Here’s one from “A Great American Cook: Recipes from the Home Kitchen of One of Our Most Influential Chefs by Jonathan Waxman with Tom Steele (Houghton Mifflin Company, 2007).
With apologies to those of you who get emails from Whole Foods, this is a recipe that just arrived in my inbox today. “Sweet potatoes, collard greens …. and how about substituting those field peas for the aduki beans called for in the recipe,” I thought. And so, here it is.
I did not make up this recipe! I think it came from a very broad-based consumer magazine like Better Homes & Gardens. One little jalapeno provides just a hint of heat. Try it!
One more collard green recipe – this one from Bobby Flay’s “Bar Americain Cookbook”. You can always cook the beet greens along with the collards to make up that 2 1/2 pounds the recipe calls for.
This is a recipe from Cooking Light magazine. Just the collards or beet greens. Either will work. You may want this dish longer in the last step, depending on how tender you want your greens.
No smoked paprika? It’ll be fine. But really – buy some the next time you’re at the market. It’s wonderful.
