This salad is one of the suggested side dishes that goes with Roast Salmon with Spiced Coconut Crumbs Roast (Recipe #141533). However, you may want to serve it as a side or starter in combination with other Asian style dishes. I have to admit that I’ve never followed this recipe exactly, but I often use it as a base.
This is from my 365 Ways to Cook Vegetarian cookbook. Posting for ZWT3. “French tradition warrants that this salad be served on Christmas or New Year’s Eve in French homes… The slightly bitter taste of the tear-shaped Belgian endive marries itself well with Roquefort cheese and a strong-flavored vinaigrette. To clean endives, wipe them with a damp cloth. Don’t soak them, since they tend to absorb water.”
This is something my former employer at an Italian restaurant used to make after work, one of 2 ways that make me eat Belgian endive. It’s not a proper recipe, so i have never measured the ingredients.
This recipe has been in my family for years. It is the best recipe if you are trying to get rid of all your cucumbers in your garden. Anyone that will try this recipe will become addicted!
Adapted from the Barbecue Bible Sauces Rubs and Marinades. Posted for ZWT6. Best with robust meat or rich, oily fish.
