We&#8217;re so used to the dark leafy greens &#8212; kale, chard, collards, mustard greens &#8212; I couldn&#8217;t tell you when I last had escarole. And then it showed up in our CSA box last week &#8212; in June! Related to endive, the season usually runs December through April-ish, and with its broader leafy leaves and just a hint of bitterness, it&#8217;s perfect for a simple salad with red wine vinaigrette.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>All I&#8217;ve done here is cut the escarole into 1- 1.5 in. ribbons, given it a good soak in a big bowl of water and spun it dry. I read somewhere that slugs love escarole (um, what does that say about me?), so between the grit and possible interaction with slugs, give it a soak in cold water, rather than just a quick rinse. Dress it with a simple red wine vinaigrette with whole grain Dijon mustard, top it with a few peels of parmesan and you&#8217;re off to the races. Believe it or not, the salad pictured served two, but could easily feed 4 as a side. Once you get going, it&#8217;s easy to mow down the whole bowl.<\/p>\n<p>The inspiration for this quick salad came from Molly at Orangette and her post about an <a href=\"http:\/\/orangette.blogspot.com\/2007\/02\/what-salad-bowl-has-joined-together.html\">Escarole and Avocado salad<\/a>. She&#8217;s also got a good <a href=\"http:\/\/orangette.blogspot.com\/2005\/02\/bagnette-breasts-and-excuse-to-eat.html\">Red Wine-Mustard Vinaigrette<\/a>. My only tweaks to the dressing were to use whole grain Dijon mustard in place of the regular and add a bit of fresh ground black pepper.<\/p><!-- Start GADSWPV-3.6 --><center><div id=\"ga_29466488\"> <\/div><div style=\"text-align:right; width:300px; padding:5px 0;\">\r\n   <img class=\"lazyload_inited\" src=\"https:\/\/bcdn.grmtas.com\/images\/gourmetads-logo.jpg\" alt=\"logo\" style=\"float:right; border:none;\" \/>\r\n   <div style=\"width:auto; padding:4px 5px 0 0; float:right; display:inline-block; font-family:Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size:11px; color:#333;\">\r\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gourmetads.com\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Food Advertisements\" style=\"text-decoration:none; color:#333;\">Food Advertisements<\/a> by\r\n   <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/center><!-- End GADSWPV-3.6 -->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Escarole is one of those greens you don&#8217;t give much thought to until it turns up at the farmers market or in your CSA box.
