ENDIVE STUFFED WITH GOAT CHEESE AND WALNUTS
This is a very elegant appetizer that the woman usually rant and rave about. I got this from Cooking Light and haven't found anything comparable. This must be served within 1 hour of making because the endive wilts very easily. If you use romaine maybe it would retain shape easier, although the endive has a unique taste.

Steps:
- To prepare the walnuts preheat the oven to 350°F and line a shallow baking pan with parchment paper. In a bowl, stir the date sugar, water and salt together. Let sit for 1 minute to thicken slightly, then add the walnuts and toss until they are coated. Spread in the prepared baking pan and bake for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 - 7 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- To prepare the dish, remove 8 - 10 of the larger, outer leaves from each head of endive, discarding any discolored or torn ones. Save the tiny inner leaves, which can be too small for stuffing, for a salad. Cut the orange segments crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces.
- To assemble the stuffed endives, place 2 orange pieces on the wide, white end of each leaf. Top with a small amount of crumbled goat cheese and 2 or 3 pieces of caramelized walnuts. Drizzle with a few drops of balsamic reduction and sprinkle with chives.
- Variation:
- To substitute brown sugar for the date sugar, stir together in a bowl 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar with 2 teaspoons water and a pinch of salt. Add 1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts and toss to coat. Spread in a parchment-lined pan and bake at 350°F for 15 - 18 minutes, stirring twice. Cool.
- **Note: To make balsamic vinegar reduction, boil 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan for 3 - 4 minutes, until it has reduced to about 3 tablespoons. Pour immediately into a small cup or jar; it will thicken slightly as it cools. An alternative, a ready-to-use balsamic glaze, is sold in small bottles in some markets.
