Tips for Making Escarole and Edamame Salad

  • Choose fresh, tender escarole. Look for leaves that are brightly colored and crisp. Avoid any leaves that are wilted or have brown spots.
  • Blanch the edamame before using. This will help to brighten their color and improve their flavor.
  • Use a variety of toppings. This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables, nuts, and seeds. Some popular options include cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, avocado, almonds, walnuts, and sunflower seeds.
  • Dress the salad just before serving. This will help to prevent the dressing from wilting the leaves.
