ARROW-CIRCLE-RIGHT Massaging kale will soften the leaves and make them easier to eat. It will also help release the sugars within the leaves to balance out their bitter flavor. Remove the stalky ribs and place the leaves in a large bowl. Add a bit of olive oil on top, plus a pinch of salt. With clean hands, rub the kale leaves together between your fingers until they just start to wilt, about 3 minutes for most kale. We used lacinato kale — also known as dinosaur or Tuscan kale — for this recipe. It is more tender and delicate, and does not need to be massaged for as long as heartier varieties.
