Escarole
Round green endive with solid heart
Green round endive with a full heart is a traditional variety that is widely appreciated for its broad, dark green leaves and its tight, tender, crunchy heart. Less bitter than other chicories, it has a smooth texture and a mild flavour that goes equally well in salads and cooked dishes. Rich in fibre, vitamins (A, C, K) and minerals, it supports digestion, boosts the immune system and adds a healthy dose of antioxidants to the daily diet..
In the kitchen, it can be eaten raw, in salads, or cooked. It can be prepared in a pan with a drizzle of olive oil and a little garlic, baked au gratin with a bacon sauce, or added to soups and stews to add a touch of freshness and character. Its firm consistency also makes it an excellent base for autumn and winter salad mixes..
