Ingredients

  • ¼ Peck of Turnip Greens
  • A Tablespoonful of Salt
  • A Pound

Method

Wash the turnip tops, and put into a kettle of boiling water with a piece of fresh or salt pork. Let them boil slowly till tender, and then season well with salt and pepper. When tender, take out and chop, but not too fine, or leave them just as they are. Drain of all water, and serve as you would Boiled Cabbage, piling the Turnip Tops around the dish, and the salt meat or pork in the center.</
