As most of our plants have entered hibernation, the rest of NordGen's operations are also ready for a few days vacation. But first, we would like to share the recipe of a green kale salad, which suits very well as a christmas dish.

Are you perhaps one of the lucky few who ordered the Danish kale 

Høj Amager Toftø

from our webbshop last spring? What's really great with kale is that it can be harvested all through winter and contains lots of vitamin C. Only a few leaves actually gives you more vitamin C than an entire orange. The variety Høj Amager Toftø is developed in Denmark and was launched in 1949. It's perfect to make this kale salad of, but of course you can also use whichever variety you'll find in your grocery store.
