Mustard Greens With
Bacon And Onion
1 lb. mustard greens
1/2 lb. bacon
1 yellow onion
1/2 tsp. pepper, or to taste
2 Tbsp. vinegar, or to taste
Wash the greens carefully about 5 times (like spinach, they can hide an incredible amount of grit) by soaking, then swishing in the water, then shaking out above the water and checking for dirt in the water. Repeat until there has been no grit twice. Now, a hand-sized clump at a time, slice into thin strips 1/2" wide. Cook the bacon in a deep dish to render the fat. Remove the bacon and sauté the onion slices until they are just beginning to turn brown. Add the sliced greens and stir over medium heat until they wilt, then add the reserved bacon and cover the dish. When cooked, add pepper and vinegar, then serve. Makes 6 servings.
