I love kale...send it to me!
How do you prepare it? I always seems bitter and stiff to me...a weird after taste...and oddly, I love collards, turnip greens and even dandelion...is there some magic thing to do ahead of time?
@thinktwice lightly brown your chopped garlic, and onions if desired. Remove the stems from the kale by stripping the leafy part...goes quickly. Saute the pieces with the garlic. I like parmesan cheese & pepper, no salt but maybe a bit of fresh lemon juice...(i find Kale salty naturally). Do not overcook, you want wilt-y pieces not mush
I once dated a woman who invited me over for dinner one evening. The main course was 'spinach lasagna'. (She had gotten the recipe out of 'Womans Day'. Anyhow, I can't stand spinach. But fortune intervened. A girlfriend of hers called, and she had to leave the dining room to jabberwocky with her friend. Meanwhile, her little cockapoo stood at my feet, looking up pleadingly at me. I got an idea. I set my plate down next to her dog; and he lapped the plate clean, in two wags of a puppy dog's tail. When his mistress returned, she saw that my plate was clean, and offered me another helping. To which I replied, "That was delicious! But if I eat another helping, my stomach will burst!"
ha ha ha...I was getting food delivered to my house last year so I could sort of learn to cook...just about every delivery had kale...
I would make it and after one bite, my husband and I would throw it in the garbage...
It was a running joke that I was learning 50 ways to throw away kale...lol
