Is kale the new romaine? Like its trendy predecessor, Brussels sprouts, forget any childhood apprehensions. Baby kale’s green softer leaves and mild taste is the perfect first step – try kale tossed with beets and blood orange vinaigrette for a salad that’ll bring the kiss of summer to the polar vortex. Pair the bright salad with salmon in puff pastry, and your dinner party guests will return for seconds, and thirds. Bon appétit.
