To make the dressing, start by putting the olive oil into a small bowl. Whisk continuously while adding in the remaining dressing ingredients. If you need to thin out the dressing, add a small amount of warm water.

Notes
Massage the Kale: Massaging the kale with a bit of olive oil and salt helps to soften it and reduce its bitterness, making it more palatable.Pickle Your Own Onions: For a fresher taste, quickly pickle onions by soaking them in vinegar, sugar, and salt for at least 30 minutes before adding to the salad.Toast the Sunflower Seeds: Lightly toast the sunflower seeds in a dry skillet for a few minutes to enhance their nutty flavor and crunch.
