As a kid I hated veggies but as I got older I really enjoy some veggies, especially broccoli, roasted in a drizzle of olive oil and a little seasoning.
As an American, I also used to abhor vegemite when I tried it until I learned how to properly spread it on toast during my visit over there and I’m obsessed now!
What did you hate, but gave a second chance to? I’d love to try some new stuff!
Kale. I hated it as a kid, but that’s because my parents never removed the stems, and then boiled it down into mush, neither of which is the correct way to cook kale. Now that I cook my own, I love it and eat it regularly.
I don’t know that I’ve ever truly had kale. I’ve always heard it tastes like dirt but I’d be willing to give it a try.
How do you recommend making it?
This is my favorite way to cook it: Beans & Greens
Or just saute it in a little olive oil with some garlic. The key is to remove the leaves from the stems and only cover the pan for like 5 minutes. You don’t want it overcooked, that’s when it gets nasty. I feel like too many people think kale should be cooked down like spinach and it just comes out a mushy mess.
Well, I do love some olive oil and garlic. I might have to give this a shot. Thank you.
