CURLY ENDIVE SALAD
Got this from "The Italian Country Table" where its called "Roman Salad". We enjoy it, hope you do too. I don't always use the belgian endive so I guess you don't have to either. I like to serve this with grilled meats.

CURLY ENDIVE SALAD WITH MUSTARD DRESSING, EGG AND GRUYèRE
This wintry salad uses the pale center leaves of the curly endive - save the outer leaves for another use, like adding to a soup - but you could also combine them with Belgian endive and Chioggia, Treviso or speckled Castelfranco radicchio. As for the eggs, which add heft, cook them as you prefer, with a runny, gooey or moist yolk.

Steps:
- Bring a small pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add eggs (the water should cover them), and return to a boil. Adjust heat so that the water is at a brisk simmer. For a runny yolk, cook for 7 minutes; for a gooey center, cook for 8 minutes; for a slightly moist center, cook for 9 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare an ice bath.
- Immediately drain eggs and plunge into ice water to cool. When cool, crack and peel eggs. (Eggs can be cooked and peeled up to several hours in advance, and refrigerated.) Roughly chop eggs into haphazard slices.
- Put vinegar, mustard and garlic in a small bowl. Whisk with a fork to dissolve. Slowly whisk in olive oil to make a slightly thick dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Put endive in a low, wide salad bowl and sprinkle very lightly with salt. Add dressing to taste and toss well. Transfer greens to individual plates. Top with chopped egg. With a vegetable peeler, shave thin slices of Gruyère over each salad.
Tips:
- Use a sharp knife to slice the radishes and endives thinly. This will help them absorb the dressing better and make them easier to eat.
- If you don't have any bacon on hand, you can substitute cooked pancetta or prosciutto.
- Feel free to add other ingredients to the salad, such as chopped walnuts, crumbled blue cheese, or sliced hard-boiled eggs.
- For a more flavorful dressing, use a good quality olive oil and vinegar. You can also add a touch of honey or Dijon mustard to taste.
- Serve the salad immediately after dressing it, while the endives are still crisp.
Conclusion:
This curly endive salad is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a healthy and flavorful salad, give this one a try!
