Greens--collard, turnip, mustard, and more--are a defining staple
of southern food culture. Seemingly always a part of the southern
plate, these cruciferous vegetables have been crucial in the
nourishing of generations of southerners. Having already been
celebrated in operatic terms--composer Price Walden's "Leaves of
Green" includes this lyrical note: "From age to age the South has
hollered / The praises of the toothsome collard--greens now get
their leafy culinary due in Thomas Head's Savor the South cookbook.
Head provides a fascinating culinary and natural history of greens
in the South, as well as an overview of the many varieties of
edible greens that are popular in the region. Including practical
information about cultivation, selection, and preparation, Head
also shows how greens are embraced around the world for their taste
and healthfulness. The fifty-three recipes run from classic
southern "potlikker" styles to new southern and global favorites.
From Basic Southern Greens to Turnip Green Tarts to Greens
Punjabi-Style, cooks will find plenty of inspiration to go green.
