Turnip greens simmered with smoked meat until silky, served with their flavorful pot likker, are a nutrient-dense Southern family tradition. This healthy side is rich in vitamins and tastes incredible with hot cornbread.
1. Thoroughly wash the turnip greens, removing any tough stems, and chop them coarsely.
2. In a large heavy-bottomed pot, add the smoked ham hock and pour in the chicken broth; bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to low and simmer for 15 minutes.
3. Add the chopped onion and diced turnip to the pot, stirring occasionally and simmering for another 10 minutes until vegetables begin to soften.
4. Stir in the turnip greens, apple cider vinegar, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes; cover, increase to medium, and cook for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to encourage even cooking.
5. Remove the lid and simmer on low for an additional 15-20 minutes until greens are silky and tender, tasting and adjusting seasoning as needed for balance. Serve greens hot with their flavorful pot likker alongside cornbread.
