The Golden Rule
"Never add the Parmesan cheese too early, or it will melt into a clumpy paste instead of coating the individual leaves like a dusting of winter snow."

Chef's Notes
Lacinato kale requires a bit of coaxing to soften its rugged texture. Letting it rest in the vinaigrette is non-negotiable if you want tender greens instead of chewing on tree bark.
Pro Tip
Massage the dressing into the kale with your clean hands for one minute after tossing. It breaks down the tough cellulose walls instantly, speeding up the softening process.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Dumping piping-hot pine nuts straight from the skillet onto dry kale and eating it immediately, resulting in wilted, soggy greens that taste like campfire ash.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Our guests are so trendy they'd eat a lawn if it were drizzled with balsamic vinegar and topped with enough cheese.
The Culinary Science
The acid in the balsamic and rice vinegars interacts with the cell walls of the kale, chemically breaking down tough fibers and making the greens much easier to digest.
