i'm a southern girl now....pot likker soup
Southern Food=Soul Food=Comfort Food...Pure and simple! If you love collard greens or any kind of fresh greens, soup, ham, and just good old fashioned southern cooking, this is for you. Even living in the interior of Alaska, I grew huge crops of greens (turnip, collards, mustard and kale) and pressure canned the the fruits and veggies of my garden. "Pot Likker" is that wonderful juice that is left behind when you cook down greens and it is truly wonderful a.k.a "Likker". Make cornbread to sop up all those wonderful juices. I'll link the recipe for my Aunt Marcia's Tennessee cornbread.
