I...Do you know about "massaged kale"?<br /><br />I'll assume you haven't:<br />take a bunch of kale, remove the woody stems, and roughly chop. Sprinkle with about a teaspoon of salt, and then "massage" the kale until it breaks down to about half the original volume. Rinse well in a colander, then use raw in a salad. Goes great with sliced apple, red onion, currants, pine nuts, gorgonzola with an apple cider vinaigrette.T. https://www.blogger.com/profile/16509409207991963533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-54044863499311651532013-03-31T22:05:02.477+01:002013-03-31T22:05:02.477+01:00Fresh purple sprouting is fantastic.
