INSTRUCTIONS
Cook the greens in a large pot of boiling salted water until they're tender, about 12 minutes. Scoop them out, reserving the water. Coarsely chop and set aside. Meanwhile, make the roux: In a wide, heavy soup pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Whisk in the flour; reduce the heat to low, and cook, stirring constantly with a flat wooden spoon, until the roux is reddish brown, 10 to 15 minutes. {The red roux is what gives the gumbo its distinctive rich taste.} Stir in the seasonings, then add the vegetables. Cook for 5 minutes, then stir in the garlic, 2 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 2 quarts water or liquid from the greens. Continue stirring until the liquid comes to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Add the beans and greens and cook for 15 minutes more. Salt and pepper to taste.
