I made this last fall and wasn’t crazy about it on pasta, but dolloped some of the leftovers last night on some homeade pizza. Super yum! The kids even ate it- well, only ’cause I buried it under the sauce. Thanks for the recipe!

The salad spinner idea is only for our farm shares’ SALAD mix. . . that gets soaked and rinsed several times out on the farm, so I was only giving directions for the salad not for the kale, collards, spinach, chard etc. . . thanks for clarifying Mike!

I wish I could eat at your house all the time. I’ve been meaning to sign up for a local CSA but just keep not doing it. I think I need to get busy and sign up! Then I’ll be all over your tasty recipes.

I’m not so worried about consuming pesticides and such as I don’t like to eat dirt. any greens you buy will have a fair amount of soil in it, the curlier the greens (kale, mustard, beet, chard, etc) the more you’ll find. It’s just part of the harvest process I guess. I find that a salad spinner does not get enough of the dirt out though (again, especially with the curlier leaves). I just fill up the sink with cold water and soak them for a half hour or so, agitating every once in awhile to make sure the nasty stuff settles to the bottom. Then make sure you remove your greens before you drain the water. You’ll be surprised at the sediment you find down there!
