I've been sampling the braising mixes offered by different local farmers. A braising mix is a collection of greens, prepped and ready to cook. They vary from season to season and from farm to farm.
Local Roots Farm offers a mix with a lovely variety of colors and textures, and it includes some hardy yellow flowers which could be kale buds. The mix from Full Circle Farm has too many big chunks of curly leaf kale for my taste. But my all time favorite braising mix comes from Willie Greens Farm. They use very young, very tender leaves, in fact, the first time I encountered their mix in a CSA box I thought it was salad and I ate it raw, with dressing. I'd do it again.
