Georgia Southern Collard Greens are a variety of collard green plants that originated in the southern United States. They have large, dark-green leaves and thick stems, which makes them ideal for cooking. The flavor is slightly bitter, but with a hint of sweetness from the sugar content in the plant. Georgia Southern Collards are also known for their high nutritional value as they contain vitamins A and C, calcium, iron and fiber. When cooked properly they become tender yet still maintain their crunchy texture. This type of collard greens can be steamed or boiled before adding other ingredients to make delicious dishes such as soups and stews or served alone sautéed with garlic and olive oil. They’re an excellent source of essential nutrients and make a great addition to any meal.
