After a botched attempt to find kale at the market – well, it wasn’t botched, it was just badly timed; the woman standing three customers in front of us bought out all of the remaining kale from the only stall that had any to begin with – I vowed to start earlier the next week. So we did. We went earlier in the day and we went a whole day earlier. And we were rewarded: there was plenty of kale around. This time I bought it on a stalk, which I’d never seen before. And because I learned from my mistakes, I bought two stalks.
It was a lot of kale.
So with no further ado I started preparing the kale. It took forever, but the results were totally worth it. I made two recipes from Smitten Kitchen; even though Deb swears she doesn’t like kale, her kale recipes are delicious!
