Black Kale and Black Olive Salad image

This sophisticated-looking number centers on the dark green version of kale known variously as black, Tuscan or lacinato kale. The leaves are cut into thin ribbons, but left raw, then combined with cut black olives and a dressing of olive oil and sherry vinegar. Shower some Parmesan over the top and you have a recipe that can hold its own on any table, at any time.
