The strong flavors of garlic and bacon are a great match for kale. The kale can be blanched up to three days ahead.

1 pound kale, coarse stems

discarded, leaves washed, coarsely chopped

4 ounces sliced bacon, cut crosswise

into 1/2" pieces

1 small onion, finely chopped

1/4 teaspoon crushed red-pepper flakes

4 garlic cloves, finely chopped

1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

In a large pot of lightly salted boiling water, cook kale until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain; reserve 1/2 cup cooking water.

Rinse kale under cold water and pat dry.

In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon from pan and set aside. Reduce heat to low; add onion

and pepper flakes to bacon drippings. Cook 10 minutes, until onion is tender and lightly golden. Add garlic during last minute of

cooking time. Drain off excess fat.

Return kale, reserved cooking water and vinegar to skillet. Mix well and heat through. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle

with Parmesan.
