.::Burong Mustasa (Pickled Mustard Greens)::..

8 Servings

INGREDIENTS:

3 pounds mustard greens
1/2 cup kosher salt or sea salt
8 cups water

Trim and separate the mustard greens. Wash in cold running water. Dry each leaf
thoroughly, since moisture will cause mold. Salt the leaves, then squeeze them
firmly to let out the juice. Place the leaves in a clean, dry glass jar. Pour enough
water to cover the leaves and have at least 1 inch of water besides. Cover the jar
tightly and store in a cool dark place for a week. This may be eaten as a side dish
with fried fish
