PICKLED GREENS
I love these sweet and sour greens from Rozanne Gold, a favorite cookbook author. Choose your favorite green or use a combination. They need two days in the frig before using. These are especially good as a side for soup, particularly Smokey Red Beans, posted separately. Cook time includes refrigeration time.

PICKLED COLLARD GREENS WITH PINEAPPLE
Sweet-tart pineapple is wonderful with pork, as are collard greens. The two together, plus a healthy dose of vinegar, morph into something that's utterly surprising and utterly delicious. It both complements and cuts the richness of the meat.

Steps:
- Bring vinegars, onion, garlic, sugar, cayenne, bay leaf, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt to a simmer in a small saucepan, then remove from heat and let steep 15 minutes. Discard bay leaf.
- Meanwhile, cook collard greens in a large pot of well-salted boiling water until just tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain well in a colander, pressing to squeeze out excess water.
- Transfer greens to a large bowl, then add pineapple and vinegar mixture and toss to coat. Cool to room temperature, tossing occasionally, about 1 hour.
