Why is massaging kale an important step?

Massaging kale helps to break down the tough fibrous leaf giving the kale easier to digest and easier to eat. The trick is not to over massage. Lightly massage the kale with olive oil, when you’re finished the kale should be a vibrant green and feel softer in your hands.
