How people cook with it
Kale is a popular choice for adding a healthy and flavorful element to a wide range of dishes.

To prepare kale, you can remove the tough stems and chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces. For salads, it's best to massage the leaves with a little dressing to tenderize them. Kale can also be quickly sautéed in a pan with olive oil and garlic until wilted, or added to soups and stews during the last 15-20 minutes of cooking. For a crispy snack, bake kale leaves with a drizzle of oil and salt until they are brittle.
