In Greece in the spring, markets fill with bunches of wild greens labeled
horta - sweet, sour, bitter, and peppery leaves of plants collected from
the rocky hillsides. The author suggests Swiss chard, spinach, and
arugula, but you can use any combination of greens you would like in this
homey dish.
