->Mustard Greens 02 <-

2 pounds tender mustard greens

1 ham hock or 1/3 pound salt pork

1 onion, chopped

2 cups water, approximately

salt

1 teaspoon sugar, optional

Wash the mustard greens in several changes of water. If there are

tough stems, break them off and discard.

Place the greens in a kettle and add the ham hock or salt pork.

Add the onion, water, and salt. There should be enough water barely

to cover the greens. Bring to a boil and simmer 2 hours.

When ready to serve, drain and sprinkle with sugar if desired. Toss

and serve hot. Many people enjoy mustard greens sprinkled lightly

with vinegar.
