AuthorNote: A different tradition of quick-cooked spring
greens has been
passed down through the generations in the family of a
black South
Carolinian novelist, farmer and farm stand operator named
Dori Sanders.
She traces many of her family's culinary traditions to
her Aunt Vestula,
who died when Dori was a young girl.
Aunt Vestula, a link to a bygone era of southern history,
worked around
the turn of the century in the kitchen of a plantation
near Charleston.
Part of her pay was bringing home leftovers. In Dori
Sanders' Country
Cooking (Algonquin Books of Chapel Hill, N.C., 1995),
Sanders describes a
springtime tradition of foraging in the fields for wild
greens, many of
which are available in cultivated form in Southern
California farmers
markets. She mentions what Carolinians call creasie
greens (field cress
that is a wild relative of water cress), pokeweed and
dandelion greens.
Pokeweed tastes like beet leaves but with a stronger
flavor, she writes.
As with all bitter greens, boiling them before further
preparation takes
off some of the edge.
