Polk Salad Annie (song)

The last time I cooked-up some poke salad was in 1992 in Nash, Texas. Wish I had me a mess of 'em right now. The leaves are poisonous so proper preparation is required. You must boil only the young tender leaves three different times for 5 minutes while discarding the liquid each time. If you do prepare poke salad please take extreme caution.
