About

The delicate, tangy and sophisticated flavours of Belgian endive matches perfectly well with the Feta cheese and walnuts.
Belgian endive, also known as French endive and witloof, or white leaf, is a leafy vegetable that looks like a thin cylinder of tight, pale green leaves. The tangy, deep, well-rounded flavor is unmatched by any other endive.
