ok heres another ... Kale ...

Well you now know I love sprouts, I also love Kale ,,I have sauteed it and ate it like that with spuds and a meat ....but what else can I do with it , and its got to be high in the good' vits..

It's good steamed takes 5 - 8 mins. It quite likes caraway seeds, nutmeg. I usually steam it off and then in a pan heat some oil and chuck in the seed and a little nutmeg, cook for 30sec or so season and serve.

It works in curries too added at the end and wilted through. It goes well with most fish but nothing too delicate. Generally treat it as you would spinich. It goes well with most red meats and game (as does any high iron/green veg). It goes quite well with bacon, reduced white wine and cream. I grow curly kale in the garden as it crops for a couple of months.

Yes it is curly Kale we get here, I usually cook it till its crispy it is really tasty, I will throw some bacon in next time the bacon found here isnt like the collar or back you get there its very fatty/streaky or you can get Gammon which is just called Ham ..I heard today that meat is going to be up 25% and getting dearer,in the US  as the corn is being used to make ethanol instead of giving it to cattle ...

Hmm, there is a kind of soup called "Good and Evil" soup that is made with kale and squash, its sort of a late summer thing. Swampy has just had it as cook outs, never made it.

Usually I have kale in soups with other veggies myself.  I've never eaten it plain.

My only exposure to kale is recent & it has been one of the greens I've been throwing in to green smoothies. Tends to make it taste a bit like mowed lawn, but not too bad.
