...is not as gross at it sounds.
In fact, we had a really delicious one at The Yabba Pot this Sunday and it inspired me to give it a whirl at home. Kale is so freakin good for you, plus it's readily available in the winter, when other fresh/raw/not expensive vegetables are scarce.
Wash 1 bunch of kale & cut out the stems.
Cut leaves into little strips
Sprinkle on 1/2t salt, several shakes of red pepper flakes, 1 clove garlic (diced) and a handful of diced parsley
Dress with 1T olive oil and ~3T white vinegar.
"Knead" the kale with your hands to break them down a little bit.
Let it sit in the fridge a while (some recipes suggest 10 min, others overnight. I did overnight and it worked well). Enjoy!
I bet this would be great with shredded carrots, red onion, red cabbage, and/or sesame seeds if you had any of those things on hand. Basically anything that goes with coleslaw would probably go with this. Let me know what you try!

I will give this a try! I read about a "massaged" kale salad, where you "massage" it with lemon juice and avocado .. I'd say the kale was lucky if it wasn't about to be eaten.
Yes! They used the word "massage" in some of the recipes I saw online. I switched it to "knead" b/c I thought that sounded less creepy.
I used radiccio and Fini very aged vinegar and it was delicious.
