Kale is the new hot super food. It is a vegetable that can be grown in cold weather so it can be planted in the early spring and into the late fall. Kale tastes even better after being exposed to a frost. However, many people do not now how to cut it up for use. Here is how I do it.
Run the kale under running water to get all the sand and grit off of it.
If it is still attached to the base, cut that off so you have individual stems.
Remove the tough center stem from the leaves. You can use a knife and cut each side or use your hand to pull off the leaves.
Place the leaves on the cutting board and cut it into slices.
Use the cut up kale in soups, stews, as a side dish on its own, in a green juice or freeze it for later use.
