Additionally, the cooking helps to release some of its oxalic acid into the water which leaves it tasting sweeter.Don't wash the leaves if you are going to store it as that will spoil it. Remove leaves that are brown, have holes, or are slimy. Slice the leaves which are quite large about an inch wide and the important stems too about 1/2 inch wide, and throw away the bottom inch part of the stems. Generally the white stems are softer and recommended for eating rather than the colorful stems. If the stems are wider than an inch cook them first alone for 2 minutes before you add the leaves, otherwise cook them together. Use a lot of water, bring to the boil and add the chard. Don't cover the pot to let out more of the acids in steam. boil the chard just a little, about 3 minutes, but time from the moment the water begins to boil after adding the chard Take out the chard when done and throw away the water, don't use it for anything else.You can toss your chard with dressing such as a Mediterranean dressing, or top with your choice of ingredients including chicken, olives and feta cheese.An easy dish is to add cooked chard to cooked penne pasta and toss with olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic.
