| Notes |
*If you are using young Swiss chard (less than 10 inches long), leave
whole, add to water, bring back to boil, and cook for 3-4 minutes until
stems are barely tender. Otherwise, cut stalks at a slight diagonal into
thin strips, and cut leaves crosswise into ¼-inch strips. Add stalks to
boiling water, leave for 1 minute, add leaves and boil for another 3-4
minutes.  Adapted from
