3. Bring vegetable stock to a boil in a pot over high heat. Whisk in reserved cornmeal, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, whisking often, for about 20 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of the soup for later use.
4. Stir in reserved sausages and collards and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until collards wilt.
