Do you guys massage kale before sautéing?

I've heard some people massage their kale before cooking. Do you find it makes a difference when sautéing? I'd love to know if this extra step is worth it!

Massaging kale can make a difference! When you massage it, you're breaking down the tough fibers, which can make it more tender and less bitter. This can be especially nice if you're using kale in salads or quick sautéing. So, if you have the time, it’s worth giving it a try!

I haven't tried massaging kale before sautéing, but I've heard it can help break down the tough fibers and make it more tender. I might give it a try next time!

Hi. . For a raw dish like kale salad, massaged kale is a little easier to eat when it's finely shredded.
