Instructions
1. Pull the Endive leaves from the bulb and fan the leaves on a plate. As you pull the leaves from the bulb, it is helpful to slice the bottom of the Endive bulb to free the leaves without tearing them. I save the cut pieces of the Endive stem and use them in a lunch salad.
2. Add walnut pieces to the Endive leaves.
3. Cut small pieces of the blue cheese and place the cheese on top of the Endive leaves.
4. Using a small spoon, drizzle Dijon sauce on the Endive leaves.
A little sauce goes a long way, so a light drizzle is all that is needed.
You can eat this salad with a fork and knife for a first course or serve it as finger food for an appetizer.
Notes
Adding a few fresh rosemary leaves adds another layer of flavor and extra nutrients, which is delicious. A few parsley leaves can also be added for color and vitamins.
This dish is simple and fast to make, but on a day when you want to put in as little effort as possible, you can place everything on a serving dish and let everyone make their own.
These Endive leaves are also a fabulous dish to serve for entertaining, either as a first course or apéritif before dinner.
