  • Don't overcook the greens: They should be tender but still have a bit of a bite to them. Overcooked greens will be mushy and bland.
  • Use a good quality smoked turkey or ham hock: This will add a lot of flavor to the dish. You can also use bacon or sausage, if you prefer.
  • Add some heat: If you like spicy food, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the pot. You can also add a chopped jalapeƱo pepper.
  • Serve with cornbread or rice: These are both classic Southern sides that go perfectly with collard greens.
