"Escarole
A crisp, broadleaf type of endive most often served as a salad green that is also known as escarole, broad chicory, or common chicory. This member of the chicory family has broad outer leaves with a crinkled shape. The leaves provide a slightly bitter taste, yet not as bitter as Belgian or curly endive. As the outer leaves are removed, the inner leaves display a paler green coloring with more white and a taste less bitter than the outer leaves. Escarole is popular as a salad green, eaten raw with mayonnaise or a vinaigrette dressing. When cooked, the greens are often served as a vegetable steamed or braised, and can be added to soups for flavoring in the later stages of soup making."

It is a leafy green that is similar to spinach when cooked (has more flavor). I had the best escarole dish at Buca Di Beppo. It was served with a marinara base that was killer! I could have eaten the entire bowl as a meal.

Escarole is a leafy green mostly used in salads, but anyone with imagination can try almost any other use for it.
