Collard Greens Pressure Cooker Method Recipes

Steps:

• Rinse collard greens; remove and discard thick parts of stems. Chop greens to desired size.
• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Cook bacon until brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Turn off Saute function. Pour in water and vinegar. Scrape the bottom of the pot to release stuck bits of bacon. Add collard greens and stir to coat. Pour in chicken broth and season with salt. Close and lock the lid.
• Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 5 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions for 20 minutes. Quick-release remaining steam, according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Season with more salt if necessary.

Steps:

• Remove the dirt from the collard greens by filling your sink with cold water and soaking them for a 1/2 hour.
• While the greens are soaking, put the chicken broth, oil, tomato puree, onion, garlic, and vinegar into the bottom of the pressure cooker and stir to combine the ingreedients.
• Remove the greens from the sink one at a time, disturbing the water as little as possible. The dirt will remain on the bottom and the greens will float to the top.
• Remove the thickest parts of the stems at the base of the greens and chop the stems nto small pieces. Then, place the greens on top of one another and roll them into cigar-shaped bundles. Cut the greens into one or two inch wide pieces.
• Toss the greens and stems with the sugar and salt. Then, add them to the pot and toss to coat with the oil mixture.
• Pressure cook for about 20 minutes.
