For a richer flavor, consider adding a smoked ham hock or bacon to the pot during the simmering process. Adjust the amount of ginger to your preference. Start with the recommended amount and add more to taste. If you don't have chicken bouillon cubes, you can substitute with an equivalent amount of chicken broth or stock. Make sure to thoroughly wash the collard greens to remove any grit or dirt. The cooking time may vary depending on the age and toughness of the collard greens. Check for tenderness periodically.
