Lots of people go nuts for creamed greens. I guess I'm just not one of them. I made this dish, using kale and chard, and it was good, but...
But I felt like I had somehow wasted two bunches of perfectly good greens.
Still, if you like creamed greens, here's how I did it.
Creamed Greens
Bunches of greens: kale, collards, chard, spinach, or whatever
Onions, shallots, garlic
Butter
Flour
Milk
Heavy cream
Nutmeg
Nuts (optional)
Steam the greens until wilted. Set aside.
Melt the butter in a large pot with a cover. Saute the onions, shallots, and garlic until tender. Add more butter if needed and make a white sauce with flour and milk. Add cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg. Stir in the greens and heat through just before serving. Add nuts to individual servings.
