Lacinato kale
Thomas J. Story

Lacinato kale

Bumpy gray-green leaves of 'Nero di Toscana' are tasty, ornamental, and extra hardy. 

Great ways to use it:

  • Blanch, then add to penne pasta along with cooked Italian sausage.
  • Pan-fry in extra-virgin olive oil with preserved lemon and red chile flakes.
  • Simmer until tender, chop, and layer into meat or vegetarian lasagna.
