ENDIVE AND APPLE SALAD



Endive and Apple Salad image

This salad came to The Times from Kathryn Anible, a personal chef in New York, whose solution to adding color to your winter table lies in this fresh, crunchy salad. "I just like it because the endive is not frequently used in salads, and it tends to be a little bitter," she said. "The apple sweetens it up a little bit and makes it more approachable. It has a nice crunchy, fresh texture."

ENDIVE, APPLE AND WALNUT SALAD



Endive, Apple and Walnut Salad image

This classic French combination makes a great autumn and winter salad. Walnuts and apples are always a good mix, and their flavors contrast nicely with the bitter endive. Gruyère cheese has a nutty flavor and adds a bit of protein, as well.

Tips:

  • Choose the right endives: Look for firm, compact heads with no signs of wilting or bruising. Belgian endives have a slightly bitter flavor that pairs well with sweet and savory ingredients.
  • Prepare the endives properly: Trim the root end of the endives and remove any wilted or damaged leaves. Cut the endives in half lengthwise, then slice them into thin strips.
  • Use a variety of toppings: This salad is a great way to use up leftover ingredients. Some popular toppings include apples, walnuts, cranberries, blue cheese, and bacon.
  • Don't overdress the salad: A little bit of dressing goes a long way. Too much dressing can overwhelm the delicate flavor of the endives.
  • Serve the salad immediately: Endives tend to wilt quickly, so it's best to serve the salad as soon as it's made.

Conclusion:

Belgian endive salad with apples and goat cheese is a delicious and healthy salad that's perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a light and refreshing salad, give this recipe a try.
