Cookbook Title: "THE VIEW" CHERISHED RECIPES FROM THE KITCHENS OF CLEARVIEW ALUMNI & FRIENDS
 | Item ID: | 2026 | | Abstract: | Here are cherished and handed down recipes of alumni and friends of this Original Thirteen Historically All-Black Town of Oklahoma, Okfuskee County (Creek Nation) established in 1903. Many of these favorite recipes were handed down from generation to generation and collected by the Clearview Rosenwald School alumni and first published by the Clearview Community Improvement Corporation(CCIC) as a fundraiser for the restoration and maintenance of the only remaining building on the old school grounds.
Although, our building has been restored and serves the community well, the proceeds from this cookbook will continue to help with the coverage of the insurance and other expenses that come with historical buildings. The building is large enough to hold large gatherings such as Juneteenth celebrations, religious services, funerals, community dinners, family reunions, and school reunions.
Clearview High was a proud school, with high ratings. It produced outstanding students in the fields of education and the professional world. The High School closed in 1964 and elementary closed in 1969 due to integration and students transferred to Weleetka Pubic Schools. After 100 plus years of smiles, tears, dreams, nightmares, hopes, promises, encouragements, disappointments, frustrations, victories, and prayers answered, we are proud that from these hallowed halls of Clearview many success stories that the town and school can proudly claim. While only a few citizens remain locally, many alumni return often to support the building we all loved. It was through this love and devotion that we can keep the building a viable place to welcome our citizens, from far and near. This is our heritage, our roots.

Awesome Collard Green
2 to 3 medium smoked ham hocks or 2 pounds smoked pork neck bones
5 pounds collards or several large bunches (if you can’t get them fresh, frozen will do)
2 teaspoons salt
My favorite way to cook collard greens is very simple. I take 2 or 3 smoked ham hocks and put them in a large (6-quart) pot of water. Bring the water to a rolling boil and let it boil for about 1 ½ hours. Add more water as it boils down. The idea is to boil the ham hocks until they begin to fall apart. You should always soak pork very thoroughly and use proper food handling techniques. You want the ham hocks to be falling apart before you add the collard greens. Take the collard greens and separate the leaves (if fresh). Now rinse each leaf individually under cold running water. After you rinse the collard greens thoroughly, stack several leaves on top of each other. Roll these leaves together. Then slice the leaves into thin strips using a cutting board and large knife. Rolling them together speeds up the process as you are slicing through several leaves at once.
Next, add your collard greens to the pot. Since this is a lot of collards; you will need to add them until the pot is full. Then allow them to wilt as they cook, then add more. Add salt; cover and cook for thirty minutes on medium heat. Stir every few minutes to distribute the smoke meat taste evenly. Taste to confirm they are the tenderness you prefer. Serve with your favorite meat dish such as chitterlings. Eat the ham hocks or neck bones right along with the collards. If you used frozen collards, simply pour them, frozen, right from the package to the pot. If you used smoked neck bones, they usually don’t take as long to cook as ham hocks.
People in my neck of the woods usually sprinkle lots of hot sauce on their collards. I like them that way. Give it a try.
Leonard Morris, who supplied this recipe, lived to be 93 years old. He loved cooking and sharing his recipes. Another Clearview resident, Marguerite French, 103 years old, currently residing not far from where she was born, has never lived anywhere other than Clearview has an accompanying recipe for Hoecakes that is enjoyed with the awesome collard greens. You must purchase the book to get her recipe.
