ESCAROLE WITH WHITE BEANS



Escarole With White Beans image

I grew up eating this, not just as a side dish, but as a main meal. My grandmother would make a pot of it, and spoon some over a thick slab of Italian bread, which would absorb the juices. This is true comfort food to me! However, if that doesn't sound like a meal to you, you can always add 1 pound of Italian sausage. Reduce the olive oil to 1 T., and cook the sausage, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest at least 5 minutes before slicing. Then add the onions to the pan and continue from there.

  • Cook the escarole until it is tender: Escarole can be cooked in a variety of ways, but it is typically cooked until it is tender. You can boil, steam, or sauté escarole.
  • Add other ingredients to your escarole dish: Escarole is a versatile vegetable that can be paired with a variety of other ingredients. Some popular additions include Italian sausage, white beans, potatoes, and tomatoes.
