EDITOR’S NOTE (May 10, 2023):  I posted this recipe for the first time on March 20, 2020.   Today, I added one new photo and nutritional facts. 

 

THE CORNBREAD

My Homemade Self-Rising Cornbread with a thoroughly baked, firm crust is best for this sandwich because it holds the filling without turning mushy. 

I suggest using my recipe.

THE SMOKY TURNIP GREENS

Drain the pot liquor from the Smoky Turnip Greens into a small container before placing on the cornbread.

Use the savory pot liquor as a dip.  DELISH.

HOW TO MAKE A CORNBREAD SANDWICH

Cut in half a large slice of cornbread. 

Arrange drained turnip greens on bottom half.  

 

Use the juice from cooked turnip greens (also known as pot liquor)

as a dip.  Tastes GREAT. 

 

 

Top with a slice of onion and tomato. 

Sprinkle with salt and ground black pepper (optional).

Place remaining half of cornbread on top.  

Serve immediately.   Eat with a fork and/or spoon.

    Pot liquor and cornbread is a meal all to its own.

      Diane, pot liquor is a popular name for the “soup” in the greens. Thank you for the compliment and for visiting my blog. Please come again!
