Grandma's Secret Tips!
Grandma's Secret Tips!
Nearly every summer, Grandma grew Swiss chard in her garden, and she often used it in this recipe. It tasted like spinach but was easier to grow. She cut out the central rib, chopped it, then boiled the chopped rib for a minute or two before adding the torn chard leaves. After cooking the chard for about 5 minutes, she drained it, pressed out the water, and the chard was ready for Grandma to use.
