Steamed Kale
Authorlisa
2 cups water
Pinch sea salt
1 bunch of kale
1
Put water, salt and a steamer basket in a medium-size pot and heat on high.
2
Wash kale.
3
Remove leaves from stems and cut or tear leaves in any size you like. Chop the stems into 1/2-inch pieces, discarding the bottom as it tends to be tough.
4
When the water is boiling, add the stems to the pot, cover and cook for 1 minute.
5
Add the leaves, cover, lower the heat and steam for another 2-4 minutes. Leaves should be wilted, yet bright green.
6
Carefully remove the steamer basket and transfer kale to a serving dish.
Notes: Enjoy the kale plain, or add a little tamari or lemon juice. Try this same technique with collard greens, bok choy and mustard greens.
