Endive/Escarole

How to Store:

Store like a lettuce head: dry/unwashed, in an open plastic bag in the fridge for up to a week. Or wash and dry the leaves and store in a container in your fridge for easy use.

Recipe Suggestions:

Endive and Escarole are member of the chicory family, which are known for their unique crisp and slightly bitter flavour. They (especially escarole) are less bitter than other chicories/raddichios, but still pair best with bold and strong flavours, like garlic, lemon, vinegars, fruit, capers and toasted nuts. It can be enjoyed as a salad (similar to lettuce), or cooked in various ways.
