ENDIVE AND APPLE SALAD



Endive and Apple Salad image

This salad came to The Times from Kathryn Anible, a personal chef in New York, whose solution to adding color to your winter table lies in this fresh, crunchy salad. "I just like it because the endive is not frequently used in salads, and it tends to be a little bitter," she said. "The apple sweetens it up a little bit and makes it more approachable. It has a nice crunchy, fresh texture."

Apple, Endive & Gorgonzola Salad image

This recipe from Gourmet Magazine (October 1998) makes a wonderfully simple and delicious winter salad. The dressing is fabulous and you may want to try it on other salads. (Also, this makes a lightly dressed salad, some may want to double the dressing. Cut the apple soon before serving so that it does not brown. You can also try this with raw (untoasted) or candied nuts. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right endives: Look for Belgian endives that are firm and have tightly packed leaves. Avoid any that are wilted or have brown spots.
  • Wash the endives thoroughly: Rinse the endives under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Be sure to dry them thoroughly before assembling the salad.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the endives: This will help to prevent the leaves from tearing.
  • Don't overcrowd the salad: Arrange the endive leaves on a platter or in a bowl in a single layer. This will help to ensure that each leaf is evenly coated with dressing.
  • Garnish the salad with nuts and cheese: Gorgonzola cheese and hazelnuts are classic additions to endive salad, but you can also use other types of nuts or cheese, such as walnuts, pecans, or feta.

Conclusion:
