How to Make Mixed Greens With Turnips Tasso
- Wash mixed greens thoroughly: Place greens in a large sink or pot. Fill with lukewarm water and let stand for 15 minutes. Carefully lift greens out, allowing sandy silt to settle. Rinse thoroughly under running water.
- Prepare vegetables: Chop the onion and dice the turnips.
- Tear greens: Tear the greens into bite-sized pieces, discarding any tough stems or ribs.
- Combine ingredients: In a large (10-12 quart) pot, combine the torn greens, chopped onion, diced turnips, and diced tasso ham.
- Add liquid and seasonings: Add enough water to completely cover the vegetables. Stir in brown sugar, picante sauce, salt, and pepper.
- Bring to a boil: Over medium-high heat, bring the mixture to a boil.
- Simmer: Reduce heat to low, barely simmering, and cook for 3 hours, stirring occasionally. Add more water if needed to maintain sufficient liquid.
- Season and serve: After 3 hours, taste and adjust seasoning as needed. The greens should have plenty of liquid remaining. Serve hot.
