Adding wine to collards might seem like heresy to purists, but it lends a subtle, slightly sweet depth of flavor.
Ingredients:
7 pounds fresh collard greens
1 medium onion, quartered
1 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon bacon drippings
1 red bell pepper, diced
Directions:
1. Remove and discard stems from greens. Wash leaves thoroughly, and cut into 1-inch-wide strips.
2. Pulse onion in a food processor 3 to 4 times or until minced.
3. Bring onion, next 3 ingredients, and 1 cup water to a boil in a Dutch oven. Add greens and bell pepper; cook, covered, over medium heat 45 minutes to 1 hour or until greens are tender.
4. *2 (1-lb.) packages fresh collard greens may be substituted.
