I Love Greens

Cooked up the swiss chard [livejournal.com profile] serenejournal gave me yesterday. Cleaned it and cut it up a little, separating the harder stems. I placed the stems in boiling water for a few minutes before I put the rest of the leafs in. Cooked it a few more minutes, drained, hit it with some garlic powder, kosher salt and a splash of oil. Chard and spinach are my favorite, but I've never met a green from any cuisine, cooked in any manner, that I have not liked. Bitter, peppery, savory, plain, sauced, you put it in front of me and it will probably disappear pretty quickly.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I love your Swiss chard with garlic. I like the spinach better, but the spinach doesn't like, or tolerate, me as much as the chard does. I really don't care for bitter greens, though.

Even *I* liked the swiss chard!
