I love me a good massage, and in fact, am currently manifesting them into my life on a monthly basis.  As it turns out, so does kale. 

Seriously, don’t knock it till you try it. 

When massaged, those stiff, bitter leaves break down and wilt becoming buttery-soft – the bunch reduces in volume by over half and the leaves take on a subtle sweetness.

To massage, simply wash and stem the kale, dress it and start rubbing the leaves together. Vigorously. After a couple minutes the kale will submit and turn into delicate, dark green and tender foliage.
