school me on some new greens! esp. collard greens, kale, etc.

yea love all those spicy greens. broccoli rabe could easily be my favorite vegetable. dandelion is great, too. i love all kinds of arugula from when it's tender and young and good for salads to when it's older and hot and mustardy as fuck.

i don't want to be that farmers market elitist but kale has to be one of my least favorite greens. either that or it's just too easy to fuck up. so many times i've had it in restaurants and it's either chewy and burnt or its mushy and overcooked.

best way to ensure good kale texture imo is to dunk it in a pot of boiling water and then saute lightly in a skillet (w/ garlic & olive oil obviously, sesame oil is good too)

i bought some callaloo (amaranth greens) from the market the other day. not sure what to do with them besides my standard greens treatment.
