There's only one way to eat kale: "Stamppot"

Edit with simple recipe: You boil the kale. Boil some potatoes. Throw them together and mash them with a masher. Add some fine cut bacon cubes (lightly fried) if you like and add pepper and salt and gravy to taste. Don't forget to serve "rookworst" on the side

[-] superkret@feddit.org 13 points 4 weeks ago

Sounds a lot like Northern German "Grünkohl mit Pinkel".
Except we don't mash it.

It's almost the same word (Pinkel is a noun, pinkeln is a verb)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinkel

The word for the sausage is Frisian and related to "pinky".

Yeah, you need butter, milk, gravy or water to make it mushy.

[-] abbadon420@lemm.ee 4 points 4 weeks ago

I never add milk and butter, but it's a good variation

[-] MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago

Thank you for sharing, I’m saving this to try for later. I don’t usually have an issue with Kale. But this sounds to good to pass up

[-] rbos@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 weeks ago

Great with vinegar too.

[-] kalpol@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago

Yeah was about to say the only kale I ever liked was in a soup recipe and this was probably it

[-] Squirrelsdrivemenuts@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

I recently moved to france and they just don't sell kale around where I live. Stampot cravings get real!

Kale is delish!

[-] Cracks_InTheWalls@sh.itjust.works 17 points 3 weeks ago

Garlic, motherfucker, do you use it!?

(Love kale and the weird little mutants called kalettes. If you don't use any aromatics or seasoning though, you're gonna have a bad time)

[-] nifty@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Tbf I just think it’s not up to me to redeem something by adding more flavor to it. Either it brings something to the table itself or it can just go (to the trash can)

[-] Cracks_InTheWalls@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

The downvotes seem a bit much for that opinion, but I am imagining you eating a plain chicken breast and am deeply sad about that image.

[-] spujb@lemmy.cafe 17 points 4 weeks ago

skill issue

[-] jewbacca117@lemmy.world 12 points 4 weeks ago

Gotta cook it more. And add a small mountain of garlic

[-] Grtz78@feddit.org 12 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)
[-] semisolidstate@feddit.org 6 points 4 weeks ago

In 60 mins I am gonna have some and it's going to be the highlight of my week, and I had a fucking good week

[-] Grtz78@feddit.org 3 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Na denn: Mahlzeit!

Kale is a vile unholy weed. No leaf vegetable should be able to survive frost like that.

[-] naught@sh.itjust.works 7 points 4 weeks ago

But it's so yummy and bitter and good for u 🥺

[-] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 6 points 4 weeks ago

2 of those 3 things are correct

[-] lime@feddit.nu 3 points 4 weeks ago

well it's only bitter until it's gone through frost, apparently, so...

[-] Grtz78@feddit.org 2 points 4 weeks ago

It's not bitter after frost.

[-] perestroika@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago

Half of Europe survived the Little Ice Age because of that unholy weed. :)

[-] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 6 points 4 weeks ago

As a Portlander, this is blasphemy

[-] enbyecho@lemmy.world 6 points 4 weeks ago

This does not appear to be well known: kale really needs colder temperatures in order to taste best. It's sweetest when it has been through a frost or two. Unfortunately that's not always maximally profitable for Huge Giant Corporate farms and so your kale is grown in warmer temperatures and tends to be bitter.

On the plus side, it's incredibly easy to grow yourself.

[-] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 5 points 4 weeks ago

Idk why people use coconut oil for things like that when olive oil is tastier, healthier, and, at least where I'm at, cheaper. I get the smoke point thing, but that's not relevant for use cases like that.

[-] LordKitsuna@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

It's my understanding that when used for frying coconut oil actually creates less of the harmful byproducts of being heated then eat olive oil does

[-] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

That's the smoke point thing I mentioned.

See my understanding of coconut oil is it's a better substitute for lard or shortening because 1. it's unsaturated fat rather than saturated fat and 2. it's not hydrogenated. It's a vegetable oil that's solid at room temperature, which is why you see it used in packaged baked goods a lot, because in the words of Alton Brown, "It'll stay moist and unctuous while having the shelf life of uranium."

[-] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

It does have saturated fat though. Rule of thumb, the lower the temperature at which a fat goes solid, the more saturated it is. But the solid texture can be helpful when replacement other solid fats, true!

Huh, I've been working under the impression this whole time that coconut oil is made of monounsaturated fat. That impression comes from watching some cooking shows that one time and thus might be incorrect.

Another thing about coconut oil compared to lard: You don't have to take a band saw to a pig in order to make it.

[-] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

It's absolutely healthier than animal fat, never mind the lack of cruelty! I wasn't too sure anymore after your comment, so I looked it up, and it seemed that yeah, pretty saturated. I personally just use margarine even though it's trans fats, because the amount I use won't harm me much and it doesn't require animals or being shipped from overseas. A little coconut oil definitely won't kill you either!

[-] qyron@sopuli.xyz 5 points 4 weeks ago

Sauteed kale in coconut oil is not even worthy of being considered shitty food porn; that's a crime against humanity.

And I speak as someone that is aiming at be crowned as the overlord of the shitty food porn in the respective /c/

BRB, going to make food porn with kale and coconut oil.

Now, it's a challenge to make something good!

[-] affiliate@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago

kale is and will always be bird food. it is unfair to kale to judge it as human food, that was never its purpose.

[-] Rolive@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 4 weeks ago

Kale is great when mixed with smashed potatoes in a giant pan with some bacon or sausage.
