Today I made kale chips. First I tried baking the kale tossed in oil, salt, and maple syrup. Then I tried them with only salt and oil. They are quite crispy when baked. They're interesting--perhaps less promising than hoped, but with maple syrup, surprisingly nice (I think the sugar helps cover up the "green" flavor). My parents have an entire row of kale plants in the garden, so consider this experiment #1...perhaps more to come.
