Ok, I know I’m a bit very late on the whole kale salad bandwagon, but I thought I’d join now – better late than never, right? I mean, I’ve been eating kale for a while, but I only ever steamed it because the leaves were hard bitter and have quite a ‘distinct’ smell, to say the least. I’d seen massaged kale salads floating round the net but never really took a second look at them, but THANK THE LORD I finally caved in!
Massaging kale really gets rid of the bitterness and tastes like a normal salad leaf, but more substantial and SO much better for you! Kale is considered a superfood – it is high in iron, fibre, anti inflammatory and high in vitamin K, vitamin A and vitamin C!
Massaged Kale Salad vegan, gluten free and dairy free
Kale
PInch of salt
Squeeze of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar
Extra virgin olive oil
Put kale in a bowl and sprinkle with salt.
Massage kale as if you are giving someone a shoulder massage for a few minutes.
Add a dash of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar (don’t over-do it, you can always add more later!)
Once kale has softened, add any ingredients of choice and drizzle good quality extra virgin olive oil on top.
