As I recall, it was written and pronounced poke salad, though I can remember it occasionally written out as polk sallet. In any event, it really tasted good when my grandmother cooked it. She boiled it twice (telling me that that was necessary to remove the poisonous aspect of the plant) and then added it to scrambled eggs.
