Kale with Pork

Put a piece of salt pork into a kettle of cold water, allowing it to boil fifteen minutes to a pound. Three-quarters of an hour before it is done, have ready, washed and picked, the necessary quantity of kale, put it on with the pork, do not cover the kettle, and boil thirty minutes. When done, drain, put the pork in the centre of the dish and the kale around it; garnish with hard-boiled eggs. French dressing may also be poured around it.
