Raw Kale Salad with Tahini Cashew Sauce

I finally figured out the secret to perfect kale is to give it a massage with a bit of olive oil, salt, and lemon juice. Whoever said, don't play with your food, didn't have nearly as much fun as us. I hope you enjoy this simple salad, made with a tangy, umami sauce.
