Quick Kale Salad with Truffle Oil and Parmesan Cheese

A hint of truffle oil massaged into kale pairs with Parmesan cheese to make an easy, palate-pleasing salad. It works great as a side with anything from classic Italian dishes to roasted meats. Plus, it’s ready in minutes. The key to a kale salad that is decadent and delicious rather than bitter is the step of massaging the leaves. Working the kale with your hands and the oil takes a bit takes the bitter edge off, and renders them tender enough to eat without cooking. Rub the kale leaves together between your fingers, until they just start to wilt. Topped with shaved Parmesan cheese and seasoned with salt and freshly ground black pepper, this is salad perfection!
