Kale is healthy for you but tends to be strong in flavor. This salad with the peanut dressing cuts down the strong taste of kale. Key is not to overly saturate the salad with the dressing. I squeeze out excess dressing.
Ingredients
Salad
- 2 ½ cups finely shredded curly kale
- ¾ cup finely chopped dry-roasted unsalted peanuts
- 10 tablespoons finely grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ cup dry-roasted peanuts
- ¼ cup finely chopped cilantro leaves and stems
- 10 fresh mint leaves, chopped
Dressing
- ¾ cup peanut oil
- ¼ cup rice wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon dry mustard
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon water
- ½ teaspoon sesame oil
Directions
Step 1
Whisk peanut oil, vinegar, lemon juice, honey, soy sauce, garlic powder, black pepper, dry mustard, salt, Worcestershire sauce, water, and sesame oil together in a bowl until dressing is smooth.
Step 2
Combine kale, chopped peanuts, Parmesan cheese, dry-roasted peanuts, cilantro, and mint leaves together in a bowl; add dressing and toss to coat. Let salad sit for a few minutes for flavors to blend.
Cook’s Note:
Sunflower oil can be substituted for the sesame oil.
