Sprouting Green Kale

Sprouting Green kale is actually new to most culinary markets, despite the fact that kale is believed to have been grown as a food crop as early as 2000 B. C. The leaves of this variety are milder and sweeter than the larger frilled Green kale leaves. In fact, their flavor is reminiscent of sweet peas with a nutty earthy finish. No wonder Green kale is fast becoming a chef favorite for its decorative appeal and complex flavor. Like conventional kale, this one is an excellent source of vitamins A and C, iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium, protein, carbohydrates and dietary fiber. Besides, as a nutrient-dense, low-calorie food, kale makes an excellent addition to a weight loss diet. When it comes to cooking, Sprouting Green Kale may be steamed, braised, stewed, fried, sautéed, or left completely raw. It's up to you to decide which way you want to soak up its unique taste!
