Recipe Summary Seattle's Favorite Kale Salad
This is my interpretation of a wonderful, good-for-you kale salad originally prepared by Seattle's top natural foods grocery chain. The flavorful wild rice, kale, and veggie combination with a lemony dressing can be made year-round and earns raves whenever it's served. It also keeps wonderfully, so make it ahead with no hesitation.Ingredients | Hayton Farms Seattle½ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil2 teaspoons Dijon mustardsalt and ground black pepper to taste5 cups water2 cups uncooked wild rice1 teaspoon butter4 cups finely sliced red cabbage2 large red bell peppers - seeded, cored, and chopped2 bulbs fennel, trimmed and chopped2 bunches kale, leaves stripped from stems and torn into pieces¼ lemon, juiced, or to tasteDirectionsWhisk 1/2 cup lemon juice, olive oil, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl until dressing is smooth.Bring water, wild rice, and butter to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender, 30 to 45 minutes. Drain excess liquid and cook uncovered until water is completely evaporated, about 5 minutes more. Stir rice and let cool slightly.Combine cabbage, red bell peppers, and fennel in the bowl with dressing; toss to evenly coat. Place kale on top of the cabbage mixture and spoon warm wild rice over kale; let sit until kale is slightly wilted, 5 to 10 minutes. Toss until salad is evenly mixed, adding more lemon juice to taste.Two to three lemons will yield 1/2 cup lemon juice.If desired, crumbled blue cheese, toasted and chopped hazelnuts, and/or sliced radishes may be added to the salad.Info | Hayton Farms Seattleprep:
