"Worts" - lovely generic word for almost any sort of green stuff.
"Buttered Worts" is one of my favourite medieval recipes.

Harleian MS 4016, in "Two Fifteenth Century Cookery Books", Early English Text Society.

"Take all maner of good herbes that thou may gete, and do bi ham as is forsaid; putte hem on the fire with faire water; put there-to clarified buttur a grete quantite. Whan thei ben boyled ynogh, salt hem: late none otemele come there-in. Dise brede small in disshes, and powre on pe wortes, and serue hem forth."
