Directions

Wash the kale well in cold water and pat it dry.

Cut away the ribs and stem of the kale, leaving only the leafy greens.

Combine all the ingredients in a food processor and process to form a thick paste.

Will keep in the refrigerator for 5 or 6 days.

VARIATION: For a mellower and less robust flavour, blanch the kale in boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes.

Serves 12 as an appetizer on crostini.
