NOTES : The tradition in most African-American families is to eat
slow-cooked leafy greens that are stewed down with a piece of smoked pork,
creating the proverbial "low gravy." Here the classic dish is updated with
less familiar Swiss chard, which is lightly steamed and served with a
homemade hot vinegar. You can store the leftover seasoned vinegar at room
temperature in a glass jar.
