Went out to eat tonight at a fancy shmancy restaurant ( which is usually not my style, but it was a business thing).
Anyway, the dish I got came with a Kale slaw which was actually very good ( im usually not a big kale fan, so I was surprised how good it was).
Ill do my best to describe the dish and my thoughts. If any of you have come across similar recipes, id appreciate hearing about them. Im not looking to improve on what I ate, but just kinda recreate it.
What I know for sure:
Shredded kale, dried cranberries, corn kernels and Olive oil
The kale was not cooked, but was wilted by the oil
What Im guessing:
There was some kind of nut in it, I could tell more by texture than the taste itself . Could have been small pieces of walnut, pine but or something of that consistency. There weren't many, but enough to feel the texture ( was definitely not almonds or sunflower seeds)
It had a slight salty, and slight sweet flavor ( sweetness didn't just come with the cranberries , but with whatever vinaigrette it was tossed with.
Did not detect any vinegar, lemon or acidic component , although it may have been there at a very slight , undetectable level.
There also may have been shredded brussel sprouts or cabbage. I detected this more by visual than texture , but it definitely wasn't kale.
Almost forgot, no onion or garlic either
So, if this description rings a bell, point me in the right direction .
Thanks
