Cooking Kale

Kale is not something that I've cooked before, so it presents an interesting challenge. I did some research on recipes and found several that sound good. The kale in our box this week is beautiful - deep green, firm leaves with long stems. Here are links to some recipes that may help you figure out to do with your kale this week.

  • Top 20 Fresh Kale Recipes from All Recipes
  • Roasted Kale (Though I don't feel like turning on my oven when it's hot, this recipe is tempting. I've found that ANY vegetable tastes great roasted.)
  • Kale recipes from Epicurious. If you are not familiar with Epicurious, you should take some time to explore the site. It has an incredible warehouse of recipes of all sorts.
  • Sauteed Kale
  • Seven Kale Recipes from Around the World. This is really neat - especially if you like trying dishes from other countries. Included are kale recipes from China, Austria, and Italy.
  • Crispy Kale - wow, this is a new one. A sort of roasted crunchy kale. Sounds great!
  • Colcannon - Irish mashed potato and kale recipe.
  • Bean Soup with Kale
If anyone tries any of these recipes, please comment and let us know how they turned out!
