Ingredients

Salsa verde:

1 1/2 cups chopped Tuscan kale (about 8 large leaves)

1 clove garlic, smashed 

3 tablespoons capers, drained and rinsed 

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar  

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 

1 teaspoon anchovy paste 

Kosher salt 

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil 

Assembly:

1 loaf ciabatta bread, cut in half horizontally

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil 

8 ounces burrata or mozzarella (about 2 medium balls) 

3 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted 

8 oil-marinated sun-dried tomatoes, roughly chopped

Directions

  1. For the salsa verde: In the bowl of a food processor, pulse together the kale and garlic until roughly chopped. Add the capers, vinegar, Dijon mustard, anchovy paste and 3/8 teaspoon salt and pulse 1 or 2 times more. Add the olive oil and run the processor for 5 seconds. Set aside to let the flavors marry.
  2. To assemble the bruschetta: Preheat a grill pan over high heat. Drizzle both halves of the bread evenly with the olive oil. Grill on each side until golden brown and charred in a few spots, about 2 minutes per side. Remove the bread to a cutting board. Spoon the salsa verde evenly over each half of the bread. Tear the burrata over the salsa verde and sprinkle the pine nuts and tomatoes evenly over the tops. Cut each bread half into slices and serve.

I need to be gluten and dairy free, so I used the kale pesto portion of this recipe. I made the recipe exactly as directed, however I found the dijon mustard dominated the flavors, and would reduce it to a tsp rather than a tbsp next time. <br />Since it is raw kale, it would be best in a cooked recipe like the pizza she used it on, but I used it fresh and added lemon juice and Kalamata olives to brighten and soften the flavor. Good as a sauce for potato salad. I’m going to try it in a baked chicken recipe next time.
