做法

分步操作

1
Thoroughly wash the mixed greens under cold running water, removing any tough stems or discolored leaves.
约 5分钟
烹饪提示： Multiple rinses may be needed to remove all dirt, especially with wild greens.
2
Bring the water to a rolling boil in a large pot and add the sea salt.
约 5分钟
烹饪提示： Ensure the pot is large enough to comfortably hold all the greens.
3
Carefully add the washed greens to the boiling water, pushing them down with tongs if necessary to submerge.
约 1分钟
4
Boil the greens for 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender but still have a slight bite.
约 7分钟
烹饪提示： Cooking time will vary depending on the type of greens; tougher greens like collards will take longer than spinach.
5
Using tongs or a slotted spoon, remove the cooked greens from the pot and transfer them to a colander to drain excess water.
约 1分钟
烹饪提示： Do not squeeze the greens too hard, as this can remove too much moisture and flavor.
6
Arrange the drained greens on a serving platter.
约 1分钟
7
Drizzle generously with extra virgin olive oil and fresh lemon juice.
烹饪提示： The quality of the olive oil really shines through in this simple dish.
8
Season with freshly ground black pepper, if using, and serve warm or at room temperature.
