A pleasantly bitter winter green with a creamy, blanched heart.

This cool weather leafy green is popular in italian cuisine and forms a heavy, tight head with a creamy, blanched heart, and adds flavor and texture to winter salads, soups, and sautees. Escarole hits a happy medium: tender enough to cook quickly and maintain some integrity, with a flavor that neither overpowers nor gets lost.

Harvesting tips

Harvest when it forms a tight head with some weight to it. The juicy, crunchy white middle ribs and heart, as well as the inner lighter green leaves, are bittersweet — the best parts for raw preparations. The outermost dark green leaves are bitter and chewy; reserve them for cooking.
