I finally got a chance to make kale chips, as I’ve been threatening to do forever. And you know what? They’re damn good. Not only do I not gag at the mere sight of them, I’m actually enjoying them. A lot. As in, must make another batch because these will not still be around when Billy gets home.
I followed Heidi’s directions from the comments, but didn’t heed her salt warning closely enough. I did, indeed, oversalt the kale. They still taste good, but I’ll definitely use a lighter hand on the salt next time. The kid didn’t like them, but I think it’s the saltiness he’s responding to, because he usually loves kale. Anyway, he eats enough of it in other forms that I don’t need him to love kale chips.
I can’t let him eat kale straight from the plant anymore, though. It’s that time of year. We have bugs on the kale. I’m not sure what they are, but they’re pretty gross. See?
