Recipes
Sauteed Kale with Fresh Ginger
1 large bunch kale (about 1 pound) stems removed, leaves cut into strips
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
2 large cloves garlic, minced
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
juice of 1 lime
freshly ground pepper
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add kale and boil 2 to 3 minutes, until slightly wilted. Drain in a colander.
In a large skillet or wok, heat oil and butter, add garlic, onion, and ginger, and sauté until onion is softened. Add kale, tossing until combined. Cover and cook over low heat just until kale is just tender.
Sprinkle with lime juice and toss. Grind fresh pepper over kale and serve. Serves 4 to 6.

The kale and lettuces are lush and tender in this lovely cool weather, and the winter squashes are hearty and flavorful.
