Hallie's Note:

Gai Lan is just one of those members of the cabbage family that go
under the umbrella name of Chinese mustard greens. I grow gai lan in my
garden - it seems to be one of those plants that once you have it you have
it for a while as it self-sows fairly easily. Some people may find the
slightly bitterish taste a little hard to get used to and one of the best
ways to lessen this is to make sure you don't overcook it. Gai lan is
almost always available in Asian markets and often in regular supermarkets
where there is a sizable Asian population. Don't be afraid to ask for help
from store personnel or other customers when you are shopping for it (over
the years I have met some very interesting people and learned a lot of tips
this way). H.

Gourmet Greens and Soba Salad - Japanese

Recipe By : Gourmet Magazine, Feb. 2002
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 10-01 Jan 2007

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
6 ounces soba noodles
[Japanese buckwheat noodles]
1 teaspoon Asian sesame oil
1 medium red bell pepper -- cut
lengthwise into thin strips
1/2 English cucumber -- (8 ounces),
seeded and cut
into 1/8-inch-thick matchsticks
1/2 pound jicama -- (1/2 medium),
peeled and cut
into 1/8-inch-thick matchsticks
2 ounces mizuna greens -- (2 cups)
or chopped trimmed baby mustard greens
4 scallions -- cut
into 3-inch-long julienne strips
1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt

Bring 4 quarts salted water to a rolling boil in a 5- to 6-quart pot over
moderately high heat. Stir in noodles and 1/2 cup cold water. When water
returns to a boil, add another 1/2 cup cold water and bring to a boil
again, then repeat procedure once more. Test noodles for doneness (soba
should be just tender but still firm and chewy throughout). Drain noodles
in a colander and rinse well under cold water, then drain again,
thoroughly. Toss noodles with sesame oil in a large bowl.

Toss together remaining ingredients in another bowl, then add to
noodles and toss again to combine.

Greens with Dumplings

Recipe By : The Colonial Williamsburg Tavern Cookbook
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 10-01 Jan 2007

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
FOR THE POT LIKKER:
2 cups vegetable stock
or low-salt canned vegetable stock
1 pound greens -- trimmed and thoroughly cleaned
[mustard, collard, kale or turnip greens]
1 large onion -- quartered
1 medium carrot -- peeled and coarsely chopped
1 celery rib -- coarsely chopped
3 heads fresh garlic -- halved horizontally
Salt
1 teaspoon whole peppercorns
Several sprigs fresh parsley
1 bay leaf -- crumbled
1 medium white turnip -- peeled and cut
into 1/2-inch cubes
1 medium white potato -- peeled and cut
into 1/2-inch cubes
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
FOR THE DUMPLINGS:
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon vegetable shortening
3/4 cup milk

In a large soup pot or kettle over high heat, place the stock and bring to
a boil. Cut the greens into wide strips and add to the pot. Add the onion,
carrot, celery, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, peppercorns, parsley and bay leaf.
Add enough water to cover the vegetables, if needed. Reduce the heat to
medium and simmer, partially covered, until the vegetables are very tender
and the broth has a rich, full flavor, about 45 minutes.

Use a slotted spoon to remove the cooked greens to a bowl and cool. Strain
the remaining contents of the pot, discarding all solids. Return the
strained liquid to the pot and add the turnip and potato. Cook over medium
heat until tender, about 10 minutes. Coarsely chop the greens and add to
the pot. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer over medium-high
heat.

To make the dumplings, into a large bowl, sift the flour, salt, and baking
powder. Blend in the shortening with a pastry blender or fork. Add the milk
and mix well.

Dip a teaspoon into cold water and then into the dough. Spoon the dumplings
on top of the pot likker. Cover and cook for 15 minutes without lifting the
lid. Ladle into warmed bowls and serve hot.

Serves 4

Pot likker is the broth that comes from cooking greens. Mustard greens,
collard greens, turnip greens and kale have been a part of traditional
southern cooking for years. This one-dish meal calls for dumplings, an
unusual and delicious way to absorb the flavorful broth.

Greens-and-Cheese Pie - Greek Hortopita

Recipe By : Cooking Light, JULY 2001
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 10-01 Jan 2007

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups thinly sliced green onions
1 1/2 cups minced fennel -- (about 1 large bulb)
10 cups fresh spinach -- (about 5 ounces)
8 cups thinly sliced mustard greens -- (about 8 ounces)
1 1/4 cups feta cheese -- (5 ounces)
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
or 1 tablespoon dried dill
1 teaspoon dried Greek oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
8 sheets frozen phyllo dough -- thawed
Cooking spray
Flat-leaf parsley sprigs -- (optional)

Preheat oven to 375F.

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions;
sauté 4 minutes. Add fennel; sauté 3 minutes. Remove onion mixture from
pan; cool. Add spinach to pan; sauté 30 seconds or until spinach wilts.
Place spinach in a colander, pressing until barely moist. Add greens to
pan; sauté 30 seconds or until greens wilt. Place greens in a colander,
pressing until barely moist. Combine onion mixture, spinach, greens, feta,
and next 5 ingredients (feta through black pepper) in a large bowl.

Working with 1 phyllo sheet at a time (cover the remaining dough to keep
from drying), place 2 sheets in a 13 x 9-inch baking pan coated with
cooking spray. Gently press sheets into bottom and sides of pan, allowing
the ends to extend over edges of pan. Coat top sheet with cooking spray.
Fold 1 sheet of phyllo in half crosswise; place on sheets in bottom of pan,
and coat with cooking spray. Top with 1 sheet of phyllo, gently pressing
sheet into the bottom and sides of pan; coat with cooking spray. Spread
greens mixture evenly over top of phyllo. Fold a sheet of phyllo in half;
gently press on the greens mixture in pan, and coat with cooking spray. Top
with the remaining 3 sheets of phyllo, coating each with cooking spray. Cut
ends extending over pan. Fold edges of phyllo to form a rim; flatten rim
with fork. Cut 4 slits with a sharp knife in top of phyllo. Bake at 375°
for 50 minutes. Cool for 30 minutes. Garnish with parsley sprigs, if
desired.

Wine Note: This dish's green flavors deserve an herbal wine. Some of the
world's most fresh, green wines are New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs; try Villa
Maria Private Bin (about $12).

Greens and herbs are the secret to a successful and fragrant hortopita. In
this recipe, sweet spinach and pungent mustard greens combine with plenty
of green onions and fennel, parsley, dill and oregano. Feta cheese adds a
sour, salty component to the pie's filling.
