Chicory 'Romanesca Da Taglio' / 'Bianca Riccia Da Taglio'
- Product number: 010200
- Origin: Mediterranean region
- Latin: Endive
Endive adds a nice crisp, slightly bitter "touch" to salads. Because a head of endive is often quite large, this fast-growing cut endive offers a solution! It's also delicious stewed or in a mashed potato dish.
The chicory family includes endive, curly endive, and various types of chicory. Characteristic is the more or less present "bitterness," formerly reviled and now highly appreciated. Let a plant "bolt" once: chicory flowers are usually beautiful blue in color and smell of vanilla!
