Thanksgiving Kale with Fennel, Cranberries and Walnuts
I love this kale dish, mellow with nuts and sherry, sparked with cranberries. I’ve had it on my Thanksgiving table for the past few years. It’s easy and rewarding. I cook the kale, but in desperate times without electricity, you can make it raw. Yes, you can. Moisten your hands with a little bit…
