Dinosaur Kale on Garlic Toast

Nero di Toscana Kale aka Dinosaur Kale

This is a simple and easy recipe for kale.

Prepare about 1 pound of kale.  Wash and remove the tough center rib.  Tear kale into 2 inch long sections.

Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil, add sea salt to taste.  Add kale to boiling water and turn to simmer for about 30 minutes (sort of like collards).

While the kale is simmering, toast 4 - 8 slices of country bread - ciabatta, a baguette or your favorite.  Slices should be about 1/2" thick.  Rub a clove of fresh garlic on toasted bread.

Drain kale and remove as much water as possible.  Put drained kale on toasted bread slices, sprinkle with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. 

Great for appetizers.  Molto mangia!
