"You may be used to cooking greens quickly on the stovetop. This method produces a different beast with a tender texture, typical of Southern cooking and soul food. It is almost a law to serve this with ham and beans or pulled pork or bbq ribs in some places. The pot liquid is called "pot likker" and is often served spooned over cornbread. Do try this, you won't be disappointed."
