Belgian Endive and Beetroot Salad image

My mother used to make endive salad (witlof salade) in different ways; I thought I share them with you. She used to use mayonnaise but I usually use the sour cream. I would think you can use your own favorite dressing on this but I would suggest you make it a creamy one. Use as much dressing on this as you like, the 3 tablespoons are just a guide line. I sometimes cheat and buy the beets in a jar! The amount of this salad depends on the size of the endive and the beets.

Overall, I thought this salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my salad didn't turn out as good as I expected. The dressing was too oily and the endive was too bitter.

I was a bit hesitant to try this salad because I'm not a big fan of endive, but I was pleasantly surprised. The dressing really mellows out the bitterness of the endive, and the other ingredients all work together to create a delicious and balanced s

I love the vibrant colors of this salad! The red beetroot, green endive, and orange apple make it a feast for the eyes as well as the palate.

This salad is a delightful combination of flavors and textures. The endive adds a slight bitterness, while the beetroot and apple add sweetness and crunch. The dressing is a perfect complement, with its tangy and slightly sweet flavor.
