Report

Any kind or variety of kale will work in this recipe, just make sure to massage kale between your fingers and thumb for a few minutes before making your salad. I will soften the tough fibers of this nutrient-rich, leafy green and make it more enjoyable to eat!

Instructions

Strip the kale leaves from the stems and roughly chop the leaves. Place the chopped leaves in a colander. While rinsing under cold water, aggressively massage the leaves. Do this for about a minute, this tenderizes the kale. Shake the colander to release excess water.
Into a large salad bowl, whisk together lemon juice and zest, olive oil, parmesan, garlic, thyme, honey, salt, and Aleppo pepper. Add the kale and raisins (if using) toss until well coated. Top with pistachios and more cheese to finish if you wish.
