Escarole Recipes


Escarole is best cooked, however, it can be eaten fresh, it is slightly bitter and spicy raw.

The best recipe is:

Saute onions and garlic in olive oil until translucent ( add a slice of bacon to the mix if you like it) add rinsed and chopped escarole to the pan and put the lid on it for about 2 minutes. Stir until wilted. Add one rinsed can of white beans ( great northern, canolini) and stir gently until heated through. Serve this with pasta, or on top of crusty toasted bread. YUMMY!!!

This is my favorite recipe with my current favorite veggie (sorry, kale). I use all my escarole from my share making this.
