Salad 1: Kale and cilantro

We love it when people ask us what to do with the veggies we sell. Since we have so many types of salad greens this time of year, We thought we should post some salad recipes. So, I will post a new recipe every day for the next week, starting with a kale salad and homemade vinaigrette.

Ingredients:

1 pound of kale

2 green onions

5 cilantro sprigs

1/3 cup apple juice

1/3 cup vinegar

1/3 oil, olive oil or canola

1/2 cup sugar

2 T soy sauce

In a saucepan, combine the apple juice, oil, vinegar, sugar and soy sauce. Whisk together over high heat. Bring to a boil. Boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Wash the kale, cilantro and green onions. Rough chop the kale and dice the cilantro and onions. Mix in a large bowl.

Pour the dressing over the greens.

Optional: Top the salad with crushed toasted dry ramen noodles.
