Great finds.

Collard greens are an out-of-the-ordinary ingredient in the cookbooks that have been posted. It (collard greens) are popular with lots of natives of the deep South (of the U.S.). If you haven't tried them before, I will tell you that they are a little bitter when cooked (probably more than a little bitter before they are cooked, and I don't know anyone who eats them that way). They have to be cooked just right for me to like them. When they are cooked just right, they are delicious to my Southern palate. When you eat them, you really need a little bit of vinegar-with-peppers sauce on them and a side of cornbread (both of those go good with cooked turnip greens, too) IMHO. Then, you're all set. If you're ever in the deep South and stop in a Mom & Pop type restaurant (Cracker Barrel won't have them) for lunch or "dinner" (what we call supper), and the place serves collard greens, be sure and "try you some."

Thanks for the reminder about collard greens (and to Gabby98 for the book lead too). We live beside a beach here in New Zealand with very sandy soil and struggle to get brassicas (including the Chinese ones ) growing well. Kale is the only exception found so far and it grows fine, but I had not considered trying collards which are also hardy but are very rarely seen over here. So have ordered some seed today to see how they go.

Some time ago a Southern acquaintance gave me her grandma's cornbread recipe too, so you have rekindled my interest in doing that again too .

Collards and cornbread are popular dishes throughout the USA. Outside of the American South, those dishes can usually be found at restaurants that serve "soul food" or barbecue.

Good luck!

I don't know what it takes to grow "collards," as I have never tried to do it. I don't know if they will grow in sandy soil or not.

I haven't ever cooked collards. PM me, though, if you need some recipes--for collards or cornbread--and I'll see what I can do. I have some recipes floating around for both, I can vouch for a couple of the cornbread recipes.

Hey, this might be the beginnings of a bestselling Southern cookbook. I wonder . . . . haha

Oh yeah, that's right. I had forgotten about that.

A lot of the traditional foods of the deep South come from Africa; the foods (and recipes) were brought here by the slaves. Some of the foods were (and I might be wrong about one or more of these) okra, yams, black-eyed peas, rice(!) . . . "collards" (I think). Too, they were pretty much forced to eat some foods that the whites considered undesirable, and they learned to make tasty dishes from them. The Southern whites also adopted many of those foods into their diets. When African-Americans had their diasporas (mainly north, for good jobs), they took with them their love for the food and their recipes. What became known as "soul food" restaurants popped up in all of the places where there was a significant population of Southern people of color (forgive me if I'm using any politically incorrect terms).

There may be some small inaccuracies in the information in the above paragraph, as I am not an expert by any means on the subject. But, the great majority of the information is correct.

You might find this funny. There have been some times when I considered jobs outside of the deep South and one of my concerns was about the availability of Southern food in the places. Not only are there not Southern restaurants, you can't even find most of the ingredients in the grocery stores to make it for yourself (this was in the pre-Internet/Amazon days in which you can now order just about anything that you could want)! I thought that soul food restaurants in or near some of those places might be my salvation.

I know that few people will find the above interesting, but I was feeling loquacious.
