Dive Into Endives
Go ahead, and take a dive into a nutritional pool of vitamins and minerals by enjoying endives. In addition to being low in fat, this leafy green is an ample source of Vitamin A, C, Potassium, and many other nutrients. Endives are heart healthy, great for eyesight, and helpful in regulating insulin levels. Everyone from children to seniors may delight in endives as part of a nutritious diet. The mildly bitter flavor adds a flair that’s similar to chicory or radicchio.
There are several different kinds of endives, from Californian endives to curly endives, being served raw and cooked around the world. With a unique shape, this vegetable can add both crispness and frill to your salad. In addition to pairing with artisanal cheeses like asiago in salads, we like to serve seared endives topped with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
