[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Kale salad is fantastic.

Wash well, remove stems/spines, shred leaves with your hands. Add a bunch of olive oil and chopped garlic to the kale in a large bowl, massage oil/garlic VERY WELL into leaves with your hands. This softens and flavors the leaves without any cooking.Then let it sit for at least an hour for best results. You may want to add kosher salt (sometimes I do, sometimes I don't). We usually top with chopped walnuts or pecans and dried cranberries. Even my kids love it.

14:27 followup: if you're bothered by the smell of garlic on your hands afterward, squeeze lemon on to your hands. Cuts it quite nicely.[/quote]

Better yet -- squeeze the lemon into your salad.  Lemon juice with the olive oil and garlic juice makes an awesome kale salad dressing--especially if you emulsify it first (with a whisk, blender, or food processor).  As PP said, pour it on, then massage well, then let sit for at least an hour.  We top ours with toasted bread crumbs and parmesan shreds.  [/quote]

op here-I do something similar but no breadcrumbs/cheese but mix in tahini-so good[/quote]
