Servings: persons

6 cloves of garlic
1/2 cup olive oil
1 small loaf of bread (sourdough preferably)
generously sprinkling of salt and pepper
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
juice of 1 lemon
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon honey
1 pinch each of salt and pepper
1 bunch kale, stemmed and sliced into ribbons
2 field cucumbers
2 pounds mixed cherry tomatoes, halved
1 green onion
1 handful basil, julienned (optional)

1
Start by crushing and mincing your garlic cloves. Add those to a saucepan with the olive oil and bring oil to a light simmer, then turn off and cover with a lid.
2
While garlic is steeping, cut your loaf of bread into one-inch cubes. Pour half of the garlic oil (try to keep the minced garlic in the pot) onto the bread cubes in a large bowl. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper and toss to coat evenly.
3
Spread bread cubes on a sheet pan and bake at 350 F for 10-15 minutes, stirring halfway. Cool.
4
While croutons are toasting and cooling, combine remaining oil and minced garlic, vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, honey, and salt and pepper in a blender until smooth. If you don't have a blender or don't want to dirty it, just make sure the garlic is minced fine and shake it all up in a blender bottle. Toss this dressing with shredded kale and set aside to allow kale to soften.
5
Slice cucumbers, tomatoes, and green onion.
6
Toss all components together. Enjoy immediately or let it rest to allow the croutons to soak up the dressing- it's up to you. If you have basil on hand, chop that up and throw it in too.
