Author Notes
Just like kale, mustard greens crisp up in the oven on low heat with just a bit of olive oil and salt. These flavorful chips are paired with a salty, garlicky, minimalistic riff on a traditional Italian anchovy sauce. —AT BURNING DEGREES
Ingredients
- MUSTARD CRISPS
-
1 bunch
mustard greens
-
1 pinch
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
-
2 teaspoons
extra virgin olive oil
- FISH DIP
-
2 ounces
tinned anchovies, salted and packed in olive oil
-
1
clove garlic
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
-
Prepare the mustard greens first. Rinse and throughly dry the greens, then tear them by hand from the stem in large-ish pieces.
-
Rub the greens gently with the olive oil, taking care to coat them lightly but not make them overly greasy. Place in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake, checking often for 10-15 minutes or until they are light and crispy, and golden around the edges.
-
While the greens are baking, prepare the anchovy sauce. Smash the garlic and anchovies together with the tinned oil in a mortar and pestle. You could also use a food processor.
-
Add water to thin the anchovy paste to desired consistency.
-
When the greens are done, remove from the oven and let cool for a few moments before arranging on a plate. Serve with the anchovy dip and a wedge of lemon.
