Pick up the leaves gently between your thumbs and fingers.
Gently massage the kale between your fingers until you feel the leaf start to soften.
Massage the leaves until you like the softened texture. DON’T over do it. Or your salad will be unpalatable and mushy.

Ingredients
5 Cups Chopped Kale
2 Cups Chopped Butter Head Lettuce
1 Large Apple - thinly sliced
¼ Cup Raisins
½ Cup Toasted Walnut - roughly chopped
1oo Grams Feta Cheese - diced
For The Dressing
3 Tablespoons Honey
3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
1½ Tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar
1/8 Teaspoon Pink Himalayan Salt
1/8 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Black pepper

Method

Pull the leafy part off the kale ribs. The ribs are tough and very chewy. Rip them off!
Before you begin making your salad, massage the kale with little salt and oil to make them softer.
Place the kale and butter head lettuce leaves in the bottom of a bowl followed by the rest of the ingredients.
Whisk together the dressing ingredients and pour them over the top of the salad.

Refrigerate before serving. Enjoy! Very tasty salad and so easy to make.

My Notes
If you prefer to have a softer leaf in your salad you may massage the kale. This is done after you remove the leaf off the ribs of the kale. The process takes about 3 minutes.
Put the kale leaf in a bowl with a bit of oil and a pinch of salt.
Now dig in with your hands. Pick up the leaves gently between your thumbs and fingers.
Gently massage the kale between your finger until you feel the leaf start to soften.
Your kale is massaged as much as you want to continue this process.
