prepare and cook polk salad stalksNeed a recipe for polk salad stalks?
Nikita -- The way I prepair them is to take the leaves off and peel them by starting at the small end using a paring knife just separate the skin from the stalk and pull it toward the big end It's time consuming but they have to be peeled to be good.A small amount of peel left on will be OK. but get the most of it.Slice the peeled stalk in 1/2


to 3/4 inch slices depending on the diameter


so they will cook evenly.rinse in cold water drain then roll in seasoned corn meal .You can always reseason at the end of cooking time .cook in bacon drippings untill browned and soft. I hope this has helped you .

Sorry, I do not know what polk salad stalks are but I sure would like to know - I love trying out new vegetables.
Whatever recipe you use, BE SURE TO COOK THE GREENS TWICE. Polk salit is poisonous, and the first cooking cooks the poison out. That's why you dump the first batch of water and rinse the greens well before you continue with the recipe.
It's actually poke salat.





Buy young ones (no purple) and rinse thoroughly and parboil it with a little salt. Drain well, and add it to a hot skillet with some bacon drippings or butter, or a combination of both. YUMMA!

Polk Salad Greens/Yellow Squash


: Cut down the tender smaller polk salad greens that grow wild in the Tennessee fields. Grow your own yellow squash, or buy them at the commissary. The smaller yellow squash is more tender. Cut the tender leaves off the polk salad, and break up in pieces,(don't use the polk salad stalks). Cut the yellow squash in small chunks. Cut up a little fresh red onion in small pieces. Mix polk salad greens, yellow squash, red onion, salt to liking, black pepper to liking, Fry on top of stove on medium heat for 20 minutes, or until tender in a preheated skillet in a small amount of olive oil. Serve with home made corn bread, (made with yellow or white corn meal bread mix). Serve and Enjoy.
