In this appealing side dish, brown sugar adds the sweet, while the tamari provides the savory. It is a beautiful dish that will enhance any meal—and a great introduction to cooking kale, as it takes the mystery out of preparing this fantastically nutritious leafy green vegetable. Curly leaf style kale is pictured here, but Lacinato kale (known too, as Dinosaur or Tuscan kale) is particularly tasty in this dish too. To make certain your kale is not tough; remove the thick steam from the leafy part of the kale before slicing and steaming. Simply fold the kale leaf in half (see photo) and run your knife along the stem to easily remove it from the leaf. No more tough kale... It's kale-icious!
