But maybe I should try some of the curly kind. I saw some dark purple curly kale the other day that was quite beautiful. I used Tuscan Kale. But maybe I should try some of the curly kind.

I don't put the vinegar on them and I roast them until they're so crispy that they just melt in your mouth. But I like seaweed, and they taste just like seaweed (without the fishiness) when I do it this way. What kind of kale is this? I only use the curly kind but this looks like the thicker, broader leaf.

Back in the day when we had a co-op membership, we also were buried under a pile of kale. I ended up making some casseroles with lots of cheese and rice that completely masked the kale. But recently I came across <a href="http://www.bonappetit.com/magazine/2009/10/how_i_learned_to_love_kale" rel="nofollow">How I Learned to Love Kale</a> by Molly Wizenberg. The recipe in this article makes kale my friend and not my enemy. I can not tell you how much I love the fact that some of the “healthy” eaters out there loathe kale as much as I do.

Never cooked 'em with vinegar, so will have to give that a try & here's a tip I learned from Jaden at Steamy Kitchen which is worth trying: Add the salt after roasting. Seems to help with the all-important crisp factor. Give it a go and see what you think.

I do not think these were a success for me but I vow to try them again one day. I did not use the vinegar. Also I might try and lower the oven temp because heating EV olive oil too high can be bad for you. Mine seemed to be too brown and burt oil tasting. Glad to see you took the plunge and ate some Kale :) This is the recipe I tried recently. I do not think these were a success for me but I vow to try them again one day. I did not use the vinegar.
