Miso kale dressing
Even though I’m proud of the boring (and scary?) fact that we have survived 10+ days on one grocery trip, I have been so excited to get more kale in the fridge so I could eat this salad again. So zingy and sweet with miso humming along underneath—it has my favorite flavors! I discovered this recipe from Tim at Lottie + Doof, who wrote about for kale chips.
When I was in the process of making the kale chips, I fell in love with the dressing on the fresh kale. So I skipped the chips part the next few times. Sold. Winner. Dinner.
Even though this looks a little bit like a “massaged kale ” recipe, the type where you rub the dressing into the salad and it tastes better every day from then on, I actually think this tastes best in the first 4-12 hours. I didn’t love it as much 24 hours later.
Sesame Miso Kale Dressing ( from A Modern Way to Eat by Anna Jones.)
- one bunch kale
- 1 teaspoon miso paste*
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- juice of 1 lime
- 3 tablespoons sesame seeds
Chop up your kale as finely as you have time to; bite size pieces is best. Pour all the dressing ingredients in a bottle, screw on the lid, and shake them up. Pour and toss with your hands.
* If you are in Massachusetts, or have a Whole Foods, you might be able to buy the delicious local South River Miso miso.

Thanks for posting this. Made it tonight with the lemon I had on hand rather than lime, it was delicious!

So ready to try this! Two kales are planted in the garden but we’ll have to find some farmer’s market produce to make it now
