Preserving Your Greens

10/13/2017

0 Comments

 
Until this spring, we never had the need to preserve garden greens in this household. We easily ate the bit of greens coming out of our garden. We typically consume store-bought greens immediately or end up composting the green slime they turn into. (I am sure we are the only household that does not finish their greens….)However, this year we harvested a bumper crop of greens from the spring garden and, around the same time, foraged nearly one hundred pounds of lambs quarters. My fingers are green as I type from plucking the leaves off about 42,000 lambs quarters stems. There were thousands of pounds we left in the field — you can see my mother lost in a sea of these wild greens.
After eating gallons of very green soup, we decided that such abundance would
require a mixed-strategy. There was no way we could eat it all.
We froze about half of our greens collection, part of which was frozen raw and part boiled. The best freezing solution for your greens will depend on your own kitchen management and how you plan to use the greens.
Freezing Raw Versus Boiled: Oxalic Acid ConsiderationsFreezing greens raw is by far the quicker solution. The raw greens are easy to pop into a soup or stir fry later and will cook quickly. This strategy would be ideal if it were not for the oxalic acid in the greens themselves.
Oxalic acid is a mineral inhibitor found in leafy greens, in particular in spinach, collards, lambs quarters, and chard. Oxalic acid will also cause kidney stones, particularly in people prone to kidney stones. If you are using the greens as we do in our extremely green soup, you will want to take measures to reduce the oxalic acid content.
Boiling the greens and discarding the boiling water is by far the best strategy to reduce oxalic acid. (I detail the research on calcium and oxalic acid here.)
If I am freezing greens high in oxalic acid, I freeze them already boiled so that I can just pop them in a soup later. If the greens are just going to add a bit of flavor and texture to a dish, frozen raw greens win for their ease of freezing and convenience in defrosting.
Freezing Greens Raw 30K+ Freezing greens raw is extremely simple. If you fear that your store-bought greens are headed to
green mush and you are pressed for time, this is a great strategy. Simply do the following:
  1. Tear the greens into usable cooking sizes if they are large.
  2. Wash the leaves well and allow them to drain and dry.
  3. Drain the leaves overnight or towel-dry them if you need to turn the
    project around quickly.Oil a cookie sheet with coconut oil or use your dehydrator sheets as
  4. Adrienne at Whole New Mom does in her article on freezing herbs.Pile leaves onto the sheet, up to about three inches in height.
  5. Place the sheet in the freezer.
  6. Once frozen, use a spatula to remove them from the sheet, working quickly as the leaves will defrost almost instantly.
  7. Place the leaves in a gallon-sized freezer bag, removing as much air as possible.
With this method some of your leaves will stick together, but you will be able to pull out a handful pretty easily as you need them.
Freezing Greens BoiledThis is actually my preferred method for high oxalate greens because I end up with quart-sized baggies of cooked greens, enough to add great nutrition to soup, already boiled and ready to use.
30K+
  1. Put on a large pot of water to boil.
  2. Tear the greens into usable cooking sizes if they are large.
  3. Wash the leaves well.
  4. Add the leaves to boiling water. Allow them to boil for at least five minutes.
  5. Discard the boiling water through a strainer or colander.
  6. Run cool water over the leaves to cool them quickly. Swish them around under cold water for best results.
  7. Once the leaves are cool, grab a handful, squeeze out the water, and place the leaves in a quart-sized freezer bag.
With this method, your leaves will freeze in one quart-sized lump. Depending on how you use your greens, consider measuring quantities you typically use into each bag. For instance, fill each bag with two cups of cooked greens.
Of course, you could just make a giant batch of extra green soup and gobble it up. That was our first course of action with our foraging bounty.

    Abrianna -- Spokesperson for the Remnant

    I have always had an affinity for ancient studies and for understanding different cultures and people. My grandfathers work was about gathering a remnant people to raise consciousness and give them a voice in the white community. The Indian Placement Program was revealed for that purpose, but as we all know there will be a second gathering where the remnant will rise up and claim who they are. This is a continuation of that work.

    WHO ARE THE REMNANT?
    The Remnant have been described as those from the Old Testament who will be adopted in or are of the true lineage of the house of Israel. Or the Remnant from the New Testament are the followers of Jesus Christ.
    In the Book of Mormon, the Remnant are the American Indian people.

    As all that is true, simply put, the Remnant are those who hear the sacred call within, rise up and stand in their truth, and walk the path of Christed mastery.


    REMNANT BLESSINGS
     We are the Remnant
    I embrace the new and everlasting covenant having received a desire to fulfill my sacred call claiming the fullness of gospel blessings.

    CALL TO THE LEADERS
    Leaders of the house of Israel were called out of Babylon making personal sacrifices to bring in a millennial time. They have consecrated all--have given up jobs, the comforts of their homes, and often families who have misunderstood their purposes.
    FULL DISCLOSURE--RETURN OF THE ANCIENTS
    We live in unprecedented times as we prepare for the return of Jesus Christ. We will soon see the return of the Enochs, the Melchizadeks, and the Lost Ten Tribes, and come to know the true history and connection to ancient civilizations, and our governments involvement.


    DONATIONS
    Contributions are made to sponsor the remnant in the way of scholarships and to build new community.

We Would Love to Have You Visit Soon!
