Ethiopian Collard Greens
Saveur Magazine
These are my favorite collard greens ever. If you have visited one of the Ethiopian restaurants in town, this is how they are. The nigella seeds are a strange ingredient, but worth the trip to the International Market to get them if you can – they make the dish! You can also substitute coconut oil for the butter.
4 tbsp. unsalted butter
1/8 tsp. black cardamom seeds
1/8 tsp. ground fenugreek
1/8 tsp. nigella seeds
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 large yellow onion, minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 Thai chiles, stemmed, seeded, and minced
1 1" piece ginger, peeled and minced
1½ lbs. collard greens, stemmed and cut crosswise into ¼"-wide strips
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
White wine vinegar, to taste
Heat butter in a 6-qt. pot over medium heat. Add cardamom, fenugreek, and nigella and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 1–2 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and add oil; add onions and cook, stirring often, until browned, 10 minutes. Add garlic, chiles, and ginger and cook, stirring often, until soft and fragrant, 3 minutes. Add collards, 1? cups water, and salt and pepper; cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until collards are tender, 50–55 minutes. Stir in vinegar and serve collards hot.
Market News
Hello!
We have a great week of veggies for you! There is so much selection this time of year, with the overlap of summer and fall flavors.There is so much variety offered and we hope you are taking the opportunity to try something new!
It still seems like a long way away, but remember that we grow and sell year round! We are planning and planting our winter crops now, and look to have a good selection of cold-hardy vegetables for you. It is impossible to predict what the winter weather holds in store for us. The past couple of winters have been rough! But, we do work with a variety of local farmers that have years of experience in overwintering crops in hoop houses, so we expect to have some fresh veggies for you!
We appreciate your support, and will see you on Wednesday!
John and Tallahassee
