Strip kale from the tough stems and chop into bite sized pieces.

In a large bowl, sprinkle kale with a little salt, a drizzle of olive oil and a little squeeze of lemon.

With very clean hands, massage kale until the fibers break down and it becomes soft. About 2-3 minutes. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, whisk together tahini, garlic, lemon juice, honey or maple syrup and olive oil.

Taste dressing and adjust seasoning and consistency with water as needed. Dress massaged kale with desired amount of dressing. Store leftover dressing in the refrigerator in an airtight container up to a week.
