    Food Reference
    BELGIAN ENDIVE

    BELGIAN ENDIVE OR FRENCH ENDIVE - This leaf is a family member of chicory and escarole, with tightly packed leaves and bullet-like shape. Creamy yellow or white in color, slightly bitter in taste, but crisp in texture.

    Genuine Belgian Endive; with creamy white, tightly closed heads, 6 inch to 8 inch long, light yellow points. 5 to 6 heads per pound, 70 leaves to the pound.

    Genuine Belgian Endive stays fresh for several weeks - and shrinkage is eliminated . . . no waste, no throw-aways. Sell every head and every leaf.

    Keep it dry. Keep it cool (38°). Keep it in the shade. Trim the stem end to peel the leaves, use the entire head in cooked preparations.
