Basic Steamed Kale

1. 1

   *Note: some cooks prefer to leave kale ribs and stalks intact-your choice. Depending on the variety of kale, if the stalks and ribs are thick, I remove them. A salad spinner is handy for washing the kale.

2. 2

   Shred kale finely and place in a steamer basket fitted in a pot. Don't forget to add a couple inches of water to the pot!

3. 3

   Throw in the garlic.

4. 4

   Bring water to the boil. Cover pan, reduce heat to low and steam kale for approximately 10 minutes, or until tender.

5. 5

   Remove from heat to serving dish. Toss with a little bit of oil of choice, if desired.

6. 6

   Season with salt and cracked black pepper to taste.
