-
- In a large saucepan, cook the diced bacon over medium heat until slightly crisp, about 5 minutes.
- Remove the bacon and drippings to a bowl and set aside.
- Place the butter in the same saucepan and cook over high heat for about 5 minutes, whisking.
- The butter will start to sizzle and foam up.
- Watch for brown (but not black!) flecks; when they begin to appear, lower the heat.
- While whisking, slowly adds the broth, then add the onions and bay leaf.
- Bring to a boil and allow to boil for 5 minutes. (Note: If using coconut oil instead of butter, put the oil, broth, onions, and bay leaf in the pan at the same time and boil for 5 minutes.)
- Meanwhile, prepare the collards for this :
- Remove and discard the ribs and stems.
- Coarsely chop the collard leaves.
- Stir the greens, cream, garlic, vinegar, salt, and pepper into the broth mixture.
- Boil for 10 minutes or until the greens are tender.
- Stir in the reserved bacon and drippings and serve.
