Salt and pepper to taste; stem and pick greens; wash several times;
put greens in large pot; add 1 cup water. Add salt pork, onion and
seasoning if desired. Cook slowly until meat and greens are tender.
Serve greens with hot buttered cornbread. Just for the information,
the liquid in the greens is the famous "Pot Likker". With the family
folk the cornbread is usually dunked therein. Recipe handed down by:

“We can do nothing, we say sometimes, we can only pray. That, we feel, is a terribly precarious second-best. So long as we can fuss and work and rush about, so long as we can lend a hand, we have some hope; but if we have to fall back upon God — ah, then things must be critical indeed! #A.J. Gossip”
