“Martha’s Vineyard-based Catherine Walthers has written a definitive and fun book about kale. You’ll learn how to discern the difference between the crinkly, to the curly, to the downright “frilly,” and which kind of kale works best for which recipe preparations. The first section of the book is a sort of kale user’s manual—tips for shopping, prep, and cooking, and kale fun facts. And there are the recipes. Lots of them. From kale margaritas to kale latkes, kale pizzas, main dishes, soups and salads. This is a book to make you joyful that there is so much kale in your world.”
– Louisa Kasdon, Edible Boston

“When I got my hands on my friend Cathy Walther’s new kale cookbook; Kale, Glorious Kale,  I was in heaven. Right there on page four was this beautiful photo of nine different kinds of kale. Throughout Kale, Glorious, Kale, Cathy goes on to feed my curiosity with flavor-pairing charts, technique tips, growing tips, and fun kale anecdotes, many appearing as “The Kale Chronicles” throughout the recipe chapters. I am excited about all the delicious ways to cook it that Cathy offers in her new book. I’ve already made Kale Granola, and it rocks.”

“Thanks so much for coming on Saturday. Everyone had such a good time! Kale was the topic of conversation at lunch today…..Fran said she made the roasted potato and kale recipe to go along with steaks on the grill Sunday night. It was a big hit with her family. I made a salad for my lunch yesterday with some of the “massaged” kale that I took home and it was delicious.”

-Elizabeth Merritt, Titcomb’s Bookshop, East Sandwich

“Kale, Glorious Kale” is Walthers’ fourth cookbook and is full of creative recipes, enticing photos and even short narratives (“The Kale Chronicles”) about her own experiences cooking with this superfood. Informative and fun, Cathy Walthers’ kale talk had the whole second floor of Titcomb’s Bookshop laughing and applauding.”
-Christine O’Neill, The Barnstable Patriot, Hyannis

“Once again Cathy has given us a super accessible cookbook with well written, uncomplicated recipes. I love kale and I love the variety of ways it can be prepared using this book. Killer recipes are the Black Beans and Kale with a Fried Egg; Baked Eggs, Kale and Feta; and the Mediterranean Dinner Salad with Seared Tuna. I love Cathy’s books and I love this one too.”

“ Thank you for the wheat berry/ kale recipe. I made it for a friend’s retirement party last night…it was the hit of the menu and we sang your praises.”
– June Miller

“Just wanted to say how much I love the recipes in your kale cookbook ….I knew kale was good for me but didn’t like it until you showed us the massage technique. My teenage son and I now have kale smoothies regularly. I have made the kale farro salad twice now. I think I have had something “kaley” almost every day since your class!”
– Lynda Dugas

“I did as you suggested and started with the kale, raisins and pine nuts and since then, have made the granola, kale with mushrooms and last night, the butternut squash, corn and kale (YUM!).”
–  Theresa Levinson

“I can’t remember if I told you how much of a hit your maple-sesame kale chips are. I made them for the Super Bowl and then for my coworkers and everyone raved about them!”
