SAUTEED ESCAROLE



Sauteed Escarole image

Escarole is a bitter green, I just love it. This is a good introduction if you never had it. The raisins sweeten it. The beans give it a nice richness. The vinegar cuts down the bitterness and the salty capers and anchovies makes for a dish with lots of flavor. The optional ingredients are for those that are not vegetarians. Do rinse the beans, anchovies and capers well to remove excess sodium.

Tips:

  • Prep the escarole properly: To prepare the escarole, remove the tough outer leaves. Then, cut the escarole into 1-inch pieces. This will ensure that the escarole cooks evenly and doesn't become too wilted.
  • Use fresh ingredients: For the best flavor, use fresh escarole, garlic, and cannellini beans. If you can't find fresh escarole, you can substitute baby spinach or kale.
  • Don't overcook the escarole: Escarole is a tender green, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook it just until it's wilted, about 3-4 minutes. If you overcook it, it will become mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Season to taste: Season the escarole with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as oregano, thyme, or rosemary.
  • Serve immediately: Escarole is best served immediately after it's cooked. If you need to make it ahead of time, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Just reheat it gently before serving.

Conclusion:

Sautéed escarole with garlic and cannellini beans is a delicious and healthy side dish. It's easy to make and can be served with a variety of main courses. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special side dish for a holiday dinner, this recipe is sure to please.
