<span style="color: #663300"><span style="font-weight: bold">Ms. Exced, where did you first have Collard greens? If you don't mind me asking.

One of my managers is Jamaican, and he told me that his mother learned to cook them from a Black Southern lady. She cooks them along with other Jamaican dishes.

I thought that was interesting.

And how do you prepare saltfish?</span>

Well my grandmother used to cook wild cabbage that some people say is similar to collard.

When I came to the States a lady from Alabama made some for a potluck at work. I asked her and realise that's how my grandmother made the wild cabbage.

Salt fish you soak out the excess salt, than pick it(break) up in small pieces.

Saute onions, pepper, thyme and tomatoe and add salt fish.

Eat with green banana, yam, dumpling, rice.

<span style="color: #CC33CC">Ok, Alabama. I thought you had to learn from someone from Down South. Yeah, we are some cooking folks. What other Southern dishes have you tried and liked?

Salt fish: That actually sounds very good. One of my best friends is Jamaican and I've eaten some dishes at her house, but I don't know what I actually ate, however, it was good and I politely asked for seconds.</span>

Here is an image: http://www.thedailygreen.com/cm/thedailygreen/images/OL/kale-bunch-lg.jpg. Actually, some people do mix Kale with Collards. I've heard that it's pretty good, but I've never tried them that way.

And since we're talking...when did you have greens, Diabolical? They must have been good to ya.</span>

I first had greens when I lived in TN. then later on in life I had a boops that used to fly me down to Chicago and he would cook them with smoked turkey neck

And...I grew up in Chicago. A lot of Black people in Chicago came from Down South. Good folks.
