Why you gotta play with my heart like that, chef? This salad is simple, requiring just 30 minutes and easy-to-master methods. For instance, do you know how to massage kale? No? Allow me to demonstrate. One hand in the bowl, squeeze away the day’s stress. It’s as easy as that. And that dressing? Oh, you’re gonna want that. Tahini with lemon and orange juice, a touch of maple syrup and water to thin into a spectacular pourable sauce. This stuff is the icing on the kale cake, so to speak. (Learn more about tahini’s origins and how to make it here!) You guys are going to love this salad. It’s: SimpleFastCrunchySavory-sweetCitrusyDelicious& Nutritious What more could you ask for?
