Endives are member of the daisy family (chicory genus) and have a rico, crunchy texture with a touch of bitterness. They can be served raw as a salad or sautéed to create a unique and elegant dish. Versatile in nature, endives can be used as a garnish or light appetizer before a special holiday meal–just as my grandmother likes to do. Today’s recipe is for a no-fuss salad with a creamy Roquefort dressing.
