Salad with massaged kale

To make the salad the tastiest, it's important to massage the kale. It may sound a bit strange, but when you squeeze the coarse cabbage into the dressing, the fibers break down. This makes the cabbage soft and so tasty that you'll want to finish the whole bowl. In this recipe, the kale is massaged in a dressing of olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey and Dijon mustard. A simple and classic vinaigrette, that goes great with the other components of the salad.
