Kale: Loved by many, feared by some, where do you stand?
Kale: loved by many, feared by some, where do you stand? I love the Lacinato Kale
Over the years I have read a lot about the benefits of eating Kale. Interestingly it has been one of my staple side dishes at the dinner table. I have always loved using this edible food as Decoration at the Thanksgiving Dinners and then the following day adding a new twist to the leftover Turkey. I have been a Kale fan when it was not cool, hip or trendy, so I am thrilled now it is becoming a more popular dish on the dinner table.
My Favorite is the Lacinato Kale also known as the Dinosaur Kale or Dino Kale. I like the vibrant green color, the shape because it can sit flat when I use it as decoration and in my opinion it is a very flavorful oneJ The leaves are long and narrow.
The best part about this vegetable is that it does not have the controversy of Broccoli. Broccoli has fans and enemies. The lovers and the haters of Broccoli both seem to like Kale.
Now keep in mind that Kale fights fat, not that I am concerned about that, but many of you are. I just like the flavor, texture and color when I do my dinner presentations. Even more interestingly it fights Cancer as well as heart disease. If you want to double check my claim Google: Health Benefits of Kale and then come back to this post and prove me wrongJ
Now you do not have to live in Los Angeles to love Kale it is OK to live in other parts of the Country. This is not a Trend Food. It leads the pack when it comes to Greens in Antioxidants. I am not suggesting you to eat it RAW, which you can.
I prefer to Sautee the Kale with Garlic, Onions and Extra Virgin Olive Oil, chicken or vegetable stock (whichever I have at home) and fresh lemon juice. The best part is you can have this great dish on the table in less than 15-20 minutes.
