Kale can be prepared just like spinach and steamed, blanched, or braised. It is exceptionally good with garlic and can be added to thick and creamy potato, bean, or sausage soups.

Try adding cooked kale to roasted sweet potato dishes or tossing with pomegranate seeds, pine nuts, and pancetta in a citrus-vinegar dressing.

When adding raw kale to a salad, wash and gently massage the leaves to break down the texture before tossing.

Instructions - Sow seeds indoors ¼" deep. Plant out just before the last frost. Kale is most tender and delicious after a frost. Harvest can continue even after snow.

• Start Indoors: 6-8 weeks before last frost
• Germination: 3-10 Days
• Plant Outdoors: 24” Apart
