yield: Makes 12 servings
active time:
45 minutes
total time:
45 minutes
Ingredients
- 4 lb mustard greens, stems and coarse ribs discarded
- 2 large garlic cloves, minced
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, or to taste
Preparation
Cook mustard greens in 2 batches in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water
, stirring to submerge, until wilted and tender, about 5 minutes.
Transfer with tongs to a large bowl of cold water to stop cooking. Drain
greens in a colander, pressing to squeeze out excess moisture, then
coarsely chop.
Cook garlic in butter in a 4- to 5-quart heavy pot over
moderately low heat, stirring, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add
boiled greens, salt, and pepper and cook, covered, stirring
occasionally, until heated through, about 5 minutes.
Cooks' note:
Greens can be boiled and chopped 1 day ahead and chilled in a
sealed plastic bag. You will need to cook them in garlic butter about
10 minutes (instead of 5) when made ahead.
