Lacinato, or black Tuscan kale is one of the tenderer members of the kale family. It has long, spear-shaped blue-green leaves with a texture that looks like crocodile skin, hence its pet name, dinosaur kale. Its soft leaves make it the best kale to use for salads, or for dishes where the leaves need to wilt quickly, but you will still need to strip away the greens from tough stalks before cooking.
