It made kale (not my favorite) pretty good.

The flavor was wonderful but the Kale was very very tough - Not the fault of the recipe. I steamed it for 10 minutes where the usual time would be about 3 minutes and it was still very tough. I will recook it and see what happens -I have never had tough Kale before. This is a very attractive recipe with the Leeks mixed in
