Chef's Narrative
Although brassicas like broccoli and rabes tossed with sweet dried fruit and nuts is a culinary standard, this play on the sweet and bitter, is leveled with avocado. Add a splash of vinegar if you like a bright salad. This recipe adapted from the Wicked Healthy Cookbook plays forward a new tradition.
TIP: Massaging kale for a few minutes after it has been cut, softens leaves and helps incorporate the flavorings.
Recipe Substitutions
Beet tops, turnip greens and young mustard leaves are suitable substitutions.
