    When blanching the kale, you must control the time well. Blanch it for about 3 minutes. Don't blanch it until it becomes soft. Basically, put the kale into boiling water, and the water will be ready again. When blanching the kale, add a little oil and salt to the water in the pot to keep the kale green. Soak the blanched kale into cold water immediately. Not only can the kale immediately cool down and remain soft and yellow, but it can also be crispy.
