I was looking at the recent-ish posts, and noticed it's been a while since a cooking post, so... I've been gardening a bit lately: weeding, mulching, planting, picking kale and arugula. Nice. Especially since the arugula patch is volunteer -- it came up from the pile of arugula stalks that I cut after it went to seed. Anyway, aside from the epic sharon/me Quail & Kale Pizza from a few years back (saute the kale, crack a couple of quail eggs over it and cook ~1 min longer), I usually cook greens by steaming them in a little bit of cream, with a little bit of red sauce. Pics (horrible colour, I know, CFL bulbs, sigh) are of a little more complicated version: a couple of kinds of peppers, red russian kale, homemade creme fraiche (post on this magic elixir soon), red sauce, chickpeas, ricotta.
