Suggestions for cooking Kale
I found this on another list. Thought it might be a good one especially for some
of the new people. I find Kale at some Super Wal-Marts in this area at least a
little more than half the year. Also, large leaves of greens including lettuce
are excellent for wrapping layers of food in.
This is what I do with it…
- Undo the bunch and fold each leaf together like a book.
- Slice off the thick center stem.
- Coarsely (sp) chop.
- Rinse well.
- Sizzle a couple of cloves of chopped garlic in olive oil.
- Add the kale to the hot oil, a handful at a time. Lower flame. Kale
will sputter (careful of the hot oil), as it still will be pretty wet
from the rinsing. As it wilts, keep adding more till it’s all in there.
- Put the lid on and let it simmer/steam for 10? 15? minutes. Check it
every five minutes to make sure it’s not burning.
Add a splash of Balsamic vinegar( apple cidar vinegarfor O’s), salt, pepper when
it’s done. Mama
