Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 heads Belgium endive
1/4 cup cranberries, dried
1/2 cup California walnuts, coarsely chopped
Roquefort cheese, crumbled

1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
Pinch of black pepper

Steps:

  • Trim the base of the endive using a diagonal cut, then separate the leaves Toss the cranberries, nuts and Roquefort together in a bowl, being careful not to break up the Roquefort too much. Spoon the mixture into the endive leaves and garnish with the watercress. For advance preparation: Fill the Belgian endive leaves up to three hours before, cover and chill. Garnish just before serving. Drizzle with Roquefort Salad Dressing, as desired. *Roquefort Dressing Melt Roquefort Cheese in the oven or in a pan on top of the stove, being very careful not to scorch. Let cool. In a bowl, combine the melted cheese, mayonnaise, buttermilk, juice of two limes, Worcestershire Sauce, cayenne, red wine vinegar, and black pepper; mix well until all ingredients are combined. If desired, add an additional 2 oz. of Roquefort cheese for an even more intense flavor. The Vintage Press recipe provided courtesy of Chef David Vartanian

This recipe is a bit expensive to make, but it's worth it for a special occasion. The endive is a delicate vegetable and the Roquefort cheese is a luxury ingredient.

I love the combination of flavors in this recipe. The endive is bitter, the Roquefort cheese is salty, and the walnuts and cranberries are sweet. It's a perfect balance.

This is a great recipe for a light and healthy meal. The endive is a good source of fiber and the walnuts and cranberries add some healthy fats.
