THIS IS NOT AN APPROVED CANNING RECIPE, please do your own research.
You can use this recipe to cook up your collard, broccoli, cabbage, and brussel sprout greens just and serve without canning perfectly safely.
I choose to harvest all my edible greens from my garden so that I may put up the maximum amount of produce from our garden to reduce my demand on the commercial food system. This is my effort at Food Freedom.
Recipe below is for a single batch of greens (yield just over 1 pint):
Southern Style Greens
Ingredients: (double as many times as desired for canning)
8-10 cups shredded greens
portion of hamhock, bacon or ham
1/2 Onion sliced or chopped
1 Quart of Chicken broth/stock
2 teaspoons of salt
3 Tablespoons of Apple Cider Vinegar
2 teaspoons of Brown Sugar
3 teaspoons of Garlic
1 teaspoon of hot sauce
Directions:
Steam Greens in 2 cups of water for 20 mins, Pressure Cook Onions and Hamhock for 30 mins, While greens and hamhock are cooking, mix remaining ingredients together in small bowl. Drain Greens when finished steaming. Remove Hamhock and shred removing skin and bulk of fat. Mix Greens and ham with the onions and broth. Toss in the seasonings, bring to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes if pressure canning, if serving directly then cook another 40 mins to 1 hour until greens are fully cooked down.
I pressure canned my greens in pint jars with one inch headspace topping with broth, at 10 lbs of pressure for my elevation for 75 mins.
