Growing up we used to eat collards or mustards almost once a week. The best ones I ever had were made by a little old lady that my dad and I used to stop at while he was doing his visiting rounds. Her cast iron skillet was passed down to her and she was at least 70 years old. She made them according to the method I posted above, but I swear you could taste the love of 80+ year old skillet. Not to mention she grew her own greens and peppers.

She would also make the appropriate corn bread in the same skillet. Collards, cornbread and ham make for a lunch you will remember.
