Shredded Kale, Tomatoes, Feta, and Mint Salad

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar 
• 2 teaspoons dijon mustard 
• 1.5 cups feta cheese crumbled
• 1 pound flat parsley ( 2 bunches)
• 2 tablespoons mint leaves fresh thinly sliced
• 2 medium garlic clove finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt as needed plus more
• 0.3 cup olive oil 
• 2 medium spring onion light white green thinly sliced ( and parts only)
• 12 ounces and/or cherry tomatoes red yellow halved

Equipment

• bowl
• knife
• whisk
• cutting board

Directions

1. Wash and dry the kale.
2. Cut out and discard the tough stems. Arrange the leaves into stacks, slice crosswise into 1/4-inch ribbons, and place in a large bowl.
3. Add 2 teaspoons of the oil and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and gently squeeze and toss the leaves with your hands until they’re coated with the oil and have softened slightly.
4. Place the garlic and remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt on a cutting board and drag the side of a chef’s knife across them at a 15-degree angle until a smooth paste forms.
5. Transfer the garlic paste to a medium, nonreactive bowl, add the vinegar and mustard, and whisk to combine. While whisking continuously, add the remaining oil in a slow, steady stream until fully incorporated.
6. Add the dressing to the bowl with the kale and toss to coat the leaves.
7. Add the tomatoes, feta, scallions, and mint and toss to combine. Taste and season with salt as needed.
8. Serve immediately.
