Endive Romaine Radicchio Recipes

ROMAINE, RADICCHIO, AND ENDIVE SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Tear bread into bite-size pieces, and toss with 3 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper. Bake on a rimmed baking sheet until golden brown, about 9 minutes.
• Whisk together mustard, shallot, lemon juice, basil, and remaining 1/2 cup oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Trim core ends of salad greens. Cut romaine heads in half lengthwise, and radicchios and endives into quarters lengthwise. Place half the wedges on a platter, and drizzle with 1/4 cup dressing. Top with remaining wedges, and drizzle with another 1/4 cup dressing. Scatter with cheese and croutons, and serve remaining dressing on the side.

ARUGULA, RADICCHIO AND PARMESAN SALAD

Steps:

• Place the arugula, radicchio and endive in a medium bowl.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Pour enough dressing on the salad to moisten. With a very sharp knife or a vegetable peeler, shave the Parmesan into large shards on top of the salad. Toss gently and serve immediately.

CHOPPED ROMAINE AND RADICCHIO SALAD

Steps:

• To a jar with a tight-fitting lid, add the Parmesan, olive oil, mustard, vinegar and salt. Screw on the top and shake vigorously to emulsify. Set aside to let the flavors marry.
• In a large bowl, toss together the romaine, radicchio, basil, cucumber, avocado and pita chips. Pour the dressing over the salad, sprinkle with the salt and toss gently to coat and combine.

ROASTED LETTUCE, RADICCHIO, AND ENDIVE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking dish with parchment paper.
• Place radicchio, Belgian endive, chicory, and romaine lettuce halves in a single layer on the baking sheet. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of the olive oil on top.
• Combine olives and capers in a small bowl. Mix oregano, thyme, salt, black pepper, and chile pepper in a small bowl to make spice mixture.
• Stuff inner leaves with olives, capers, and spice mixture using your fingers. Wrap halves together with kitchen string to prevent stuffing from falling out. Drizzle remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crispy and beginning to wilt, 10 to 15 minutes. Cut off kitchen string and sprinkle Romano cheese on top before serving.

RADICCHIO AND ENDIVE SIDE DISH

Steps:

• Tear radicchio and endive leaves into bite-size pieces and rinse in a strainer. Shake out all of the water.
• In a large skillet, saute 2 cloves of chopped garlic with about 2 tablespoons of oil. When garlic is beginning to slightly brown, throw in the radicchio and endive. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with a bit more olive oil. Stir radicchio and endive and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally to avoid browning too much.
• Meanwhile in a smaller skillet, add remaining chopped garlic clove with a tablespoon of olive oil. As garlic browns, add chickpeas and the 3/4 cup of walnuts. Season with a little salt and pepper and a drop of olive oil and stir. Cook for 3 minutes, until chickpeas are heated through.
• Pour radicchio and endive into a serving bowl. Then pour the chickpea/walnut mixture on top. Serve warm.

ENDIVE AND RADICCHIO SALAD

Steps:

• Trim endives and halve lengthwise. Cut pieces in half crosswise, then cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-wide strips.
• Cut radicchio in half and discard core, then cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-wide strips. Soak radicchio and endives in a large bowl of very cold water to crisp, 10 minutes, then drain and dry.
• Whisk together mustard, vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, grapeseed oil, and sesame oil in another large bowl until emulsified.
• Add endives, radicchio, scallions, and sesame seeds and toss until coated well.
