About Collards, cooked, boiled, drained, with salt

Black cabbage (Brassica oleracea), better known as cavolo nero, lacinato kale, Tuscan kale, or dinosaur kale, is a dramatic dark leafy vegetable with long, narrow, deeply puckered blue-black leaves. A cornerstone of Tuscan cooking since the Renaissance, this cruciferous green has a hearty texture and a deep, earthy, slightly sweet and nutty flavor that holds up beautifully to long cooking, and a touch of frost in the garden makes it sweeter still.

It is low in calories and exceptionally rich in vitamins A, C, and K, along with fiber, calcium, iron, and antioxidants. It is the classic green for the Italian soups ribollita and minestrone, and it is also braised, sauteed with garlic and olive oil, stirred into pastas and beans, baked into crisp kale chips, or sliced thin and massaged for a sturdy raw salad. Removing the tough central stem before cooking is key, and the older leaves reward a longer simmer.

Choose firm bunches with deeply colored, unwilted leaves, and store black cabbage wrapped in the refrigerator, using it within several days.
