Add the ham hock and bacon to water and boil uncovered for about 40
minutes, or until the water is reduced by half. Meanwhile, trim and wash
the greens in at least three changes of water to remove the dirt and grit.
Add greens, onion and vinegar to the water and simmer slowly for about an
hour. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Discard ham hock or bacon and
drain greens before serving. Serves 4.
Comments: For additional flavor, add turnips, new potatoes, or additional
bacon drippings during cooking.
