Welcome to Celtnet's Greens Recipes Page — This is a continuation of an entire series of pages that will, I hope, allow my visitors to better navigate this site. As well as displaying recipes by name, country and region of origin I am now planning a whole series of pages where recipes can be located by meal type and main ingredient. This page gives a listing of all the 'greens' recipes added to this site. The term 'greens' refers to any leafy vegetable that can either be boiled or fried and wilted prior to serving. The greens recipes par excellence come from West Africa and the American South, with one culture influencing the other. As well as all these classic dishes for greens-based soups you will also find recipes here for wild foods, for long-forgotten European foods and for greens-based recipes elsewhere from the globe. What will amaze (and hopefully intrigue you) is the range and breadth of leaves that can be consumed by humans.
