What exactly is massaged kale?
Kale is a hearty winter green that holds up well in soups and stews. But it’s also wonderful as a salad if you give it a three-minute massage. With a little oil, this tough green leaf shrinks in size and the texture becomes soft. You can try this Massaged Kale Salad with Lemon and Parmesan, an easy side dish.
To make the eggs for this salad, I’ve been making perfect soft boiled eggs in the instant pot, but hard boiled eggs would also work fine if you prefer a firmer yolk.
