  --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1                cup  dark soy sauce -- or tamari
    1                cup  water
       1/2           cup  dry sherry
                          fresh ginger root -- several nickel-sized pieces, peeled
    4                     garlic cloves -- or 5 cloves
    1         Tablespoon  sugar
                          star anise -- several pieces
    2             pounds  collard greens
   
   
  Combine first 7 ingredients in a large pot and bring to a boil. Continue
  to boil while you prepare the collards. After washing the greens, trim
  them of their larger stems and chop coarsely. Place in the cooking liquid
  and adjust heat to maintain a gentle boil. Cook until the greens are
  tender and most of the liquid is gone, about 10 to 15 minutes. Serve over
  rice as a main course or as a side dish.
  Other Greens to Use: Broccoli raab, any of the thick-stemmed cabbages, or
  kale.

  for meats but is excellent with the tougher greens.
