Picking up kale today to make this salad. Love Waxman; love Barbuto yet somehow don’t own the cookbook. I do own Secrets of the Best Chefs and wish there was a way you could dish about the stories that must have come from that project….

There are so many! One of my favorites was when I went to cook with Tom Douglas in Seattle. He seemed slightly suspicious of this 20-something kid with a Moleskin notebook frantically scribbling down every step of his recipes. At some point, one of the managers asked him what we were doing and he said: "He's pretending to be a journalist and I'm pretending to be a chef."

I made this kale salad and it was as good as Adam describes it. I'm not a big kale eater but I will definitely be making this salad again in the future.

I made this for dinner last night and served it with Waxman's crispy potatoes and a sort-of version of his chicken. It was absolutely delicious. Such a simple thing but really delivers. I think I'd de-stalk the kale next time though.

Normally I am kalephobic but you have inspired me to try this salad. Though I have first to catch my kale.
