Cape Cod Kale Salad

October 2, 2013 By JJ 7 Comments

Cape Cod Kale Salad

Salad is a simple act.

A few fresh vegetables washed in cool water.

A sharp knife slicing effortlessly through crisp leaves.

A tangy dressing thrown together with what’s on hand.

The first bite is refreshing after days of excess.

The second is calming and reassuring.

A return to clean simplicity, shared with family over the sound of old stories, squealing children and end of summer breezes.

I probably should have made another batch for the second half of our trip …

After days of holiday indulgence this kale salad was exactly what I needed. If possible make it up a few hours in advance, the longer you let it sit the more the kale will soften and the flavours meld together.

Serves: 8

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 bunch curly kale
  • 1 bunch cavalo nero
  • 1/2 red cabbage
  • 3 carrots
  • 1 red onion, optional
  • 3 Tbsp Tangy Mustard Dressing, plus extra to serve

METHOD

Finely slice kale, cavalo nero and red cabbage. Create ribbons of carrot with a peeler. Thinly slice onion.

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, pour over dressing and use your hands to mix well.

Let dressed salad sit for an hour or so to soften leaves. Serve with extra dressing.

COOK’S NOTES

  • Strip kale leaves from centre stalk: hold the base of the stalk and run your fingers up towards the top, separating the leaves from the vein as you go.
