Steps to make Boiled greens salad:
First you need to check your greens and remove any thick/hard stems, brown leaves etc.
Then wash your greens very well. Put them in a really large bowl, or in a clean sink, submerge in water and add 1/4 cup of vinegar and some coarse salt. Let them there for half an hour. The dirt they may have will sink to the bottom and it will be easier to clean the greens. Rinse a couple of times to make sure they are perfectly washed.
Put water in a large pot and bring it to boil. Add a tablespoon of salt, submerge the greens in the pot and boil for about 10 minutes. Check if they are tender (you can decide how tender you want them and remove earlier or later than that). - If you are using other kinds of greens (like endive or chicory etc), you many need to boil them for longer.
When done you can put the greens in a container, with enough water from where you boiled them to cover them, and put them in the fridge. When you want to serve the salad, you take some greens with a fork (so that they retain a bit of the water), put them in a dish and add plenty of lemon and olive oil and some salt.
You can eat the salad hot or cold. Both are tasty! - Many people drink the water where the greens boiled. You can run it through a sieve and keep it in the fridge and drink it cool, adding some lemon if you want. It's considered to be very very healthy for you!
