Just had to give my two cents on this because I've had Kale from the grocery store and Kale from a local organic farmer (through Backyard Produce) and it's definitely better when bought locally. I also saw the tip about using baking soda on Kale to cut down on the toughness so let me know how it goes for you if you give it a try!!!Nicole | Pharr Awayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05381255559268843255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4645393935807442551.post-41910134193716314142013-05-05T14:32:58.725-04:002013-05-05T14:32:58.725-04:00Nicole, you are absolutely right.

Kale is tough and you should only cook it for 5-15 minutes so you're not going to be able to completely take away it's toughness. Your second approach (saute then boil for 15 minutes) should be plenty of time. You just have to go into it with a different mindset when you're eating it!Nicole | Pharr Awayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05381255559268843255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4645393935807442551.post-75094708718949635452013-05-04T21:42:35.621-04:002013-05-04T21:42:35.621-04:00I love kale, well greens in general.

Usually they are tender after a frost hits them, but if they're in a different season they will be tougher. Also, any greens purchased from grocery stores tend to be tougher than those purchased from farmer's markets or farms.

I asked for the trick to my mom's "homemade" bread..she said "open the can and let it rise" --EVIL! I LOVE Kale when it is baked like a potato chip. I am on a healthy "cleaner" eating path and found that potato chips are my weaknes. Toss your kale in some EVOO and salt and bake and it is AWESOME!!
