A salad made with a type of endive.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 1 head of escarole
  • sea salt
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon of sweet basil, fresh
  • 3 tablespoons of virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon of tarragon
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 1 teaspoon of oregano
  • 4 green onions
  1. Step 1

    The escarole should be eaten within 24 hours of its purchase or it will go bad. Keep it wrapped in paper toweling and a plastic bag with a zipping lock until you're ready to use it.

  2. Step 2

    Wash and drain the escarole, then tear the leaves into small fragments and run them through a salad spinner. Place the leaves in a mixing bowl.

  3. Step 3

    Grind the pepper, peel and mince the garlic, chop the onions and sweet basil.

  4. Step 4

    Mix the salt, pepper, balsamic vinegar, sweet basil, olive oil, tarragon, garlic, oregano and onions, then drizzle this over the escarole, mix again and serve.
