Collard greens are a staple of Southern cuisine and are often served on New Year’s Day as a symbol of good luck and prosperity for the coming year. They are a type of leafy green vegetable that is hearty, flavorful, and packed with nutrients.

 

What Are Southern Collard Greens?

 

Collard greens are a type of leafy green vegetable that is native to the eastern Mediterranean and Asia Minor. They are a staple of Southern cuisine and are often served on New Year’s Day as a symbol of good luck and prosperity for the coming year. Collard greens are a member of the cabbage family and are closely related to kale, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts.

 

Collard greens are hearty, flavorful, and packed with nutrients. They are a good source of vitamins A, C, and K, as well as calcium and iron. Collard greens have a slightly bitter, earthy flavor and a tender, yet sturdy texture. They are often used in Southern-style dishes, such as collard greens and ham hocks, collard greens and black-eyed peas, and collard greens and smoked turkey.
