Celery And Endive Salad Food

CELERY & PARMESAN SALAD

Steps:

• At least 1 hour before you plan to serve the salad, whisk together the olive oil, lemon zest, 1/4 cup of lemon juice, the shallots, celery seed, celery salt, anchovy paste, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Place the celery in a mixing bowl and toss it with the remaining 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. (Even though these ingredients are in the dressing, believe me?this step makes a difference.) Add enough dressing to moisten well. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour to allow the celery to crisp and the flavors to develop.
• When ready to serve, arrange the celery on a platter, shave the Parmesan onto the celery with a vegetable peeler, then sprinkle with walnuts, parsley leaves, salt, and pepper and serve immediately.

CELERY-ENDIVE SLAW

Steps:

• Cut celery into 3-inch pieces, then slice each piece lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick strips. Halve each endive lengthwise, cut out core, and slice each half lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick strips.
• Whisk together blue cheese, vinegar, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add oil in a slow, steady stream, whisking until emulsified.
• Toss celery and endive with dressing; season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Garnish with celery leaves and blue cheese.

ENDIVE, PEAR, AND ROQUEFORT SALAD

Steps:

• Trim off the core end of each head of endive and slice it in half lengthwise. Cut out the cores, separate the leaves, and place 1 1/2 to 2 heads of endive on each plate.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the vinegar, mustard, egg yolk, salt, and pepper. Slowly whisk in the olive oil to make an emulsion. Toss the pears with some vinaigrette and place on the endive. Drizzle the remaining vinaigrette over the endive leaves to moisten them. Crumble the Roquefort onto the endive. Sprinkle with walnuts and serve at room temperature.

ENDIVE, APPLE, AND CELERY SALAD WITH SMOKED ALMONDS AND CHEDDAR

Steps:

• Combine 1 Tbsp. vinegar and 3 cups cold water in a medium bowl. Add apple slices and let soak.
• Meanwhile, whisk mustard, kosher salt, and remaining 1/4 cup vinegar in a medium bowl, then whisk in oil in a slow, steady stream.
• Drain and pat apple slices dry. Combine apple slices, endives, celery stalks, cheese, and half of the almonds in a large bowl.
• Drizzle dressing over salad. Gently toss until salad is evenly dressed, then season with sea salt and pepper. Top with chives, celery leaves, and remaining almonds.

CELERY ROOT, ENDIVE, AVOCADO AND BLUE CRAB SALAD

Steps:

• Prepare dressing: In a medium bowl, combine shallots, lemon juice, salt and black pepper. Allow to sit for 5 minutes, then gradually whisk in the vegetable oil and olive oil. Add the heavy cream and cayenne pepper, stirring to blend. Adjust seasonings to taste.
• Peel and core the apple, and cut into 1/8-inch matchsticks. Place in a large mixing bowl with the celery root, endive and 10 ounces of the crab. Add about half of the dressing, and toss to coat; add more dressing, if desired. Add the chives, 1 tablespoon of the celery leaves and all but 1 tablespoon of the parsley. Add additional lemon juice and salt and pepper as desired, to taste.
• To serve, peel avocado and slice into thin wedges. Place in a medium bowl, and toss with just enough olive oil to coat the wedges. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Divide the avocado among six plates. Divide the celery root mixture among plates, placing it on top of the avocado but allowing some of the avocado to show at one side. In a small bowl, combine the remaining crab meat, parsley and celery leaves. Add 1/2 tablespoon of the dressing, and toss to combine; reserve the remaining dressing for another use. Place a spoonful of crab mixture on top of each salad as garnish. Serve immediately.

PEAR, GORGONZOLA & WALNUT SALAD

Steps:

• Whisk together oil, lemon juice, honey, thyme, mustard, pepper and salt in a large bowl. Add lettuce and gently toss to combine. Top with sliced pear, Gorgonzola, walnuts and raisins. Serve immediately.

BELGIAN ENDIVE, ORANGE AND DATE SALAD

Steps:

• *Note: specifically the [inner white] stalks of celery plus the leaves. The celery stalks are thinly sliced on a diagonal.
• Tip: To make slicing the Medjools easier, run your knife under hot water before slicing.
• For the dressing, whisk all of the ingredients in a small bowl.
• To make individual salad stacks, place radish slices in a circle in the middle of a salad plate.
• Then build up as you go, adding oranges slices, endive slices, celery slices and leaves, dates, pistachios (or pecans) and fresh mint leaves. Repeat with remaining three dishes.
• Drizzle with dressing, and garnish with orange zest, celery leaves and fresh mint.

CREAMY BRAISED CHICORY/BELGIAN ENDIVE AND CELERY WITH PEAS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C / fan 180C / 295F / gas 6. Hold one chicory half and a length of celery together and wrap with a rasher of pancetta or bacon to make a bundle. Repeat with remaining veg and place in a shallow ovenproof dish. If you have any leftover celery, pop that in too. Pour in the stock and cream, season to taste and cover tightly with foil.
• Bake for 40 minutes or until the vegetables are soft. Remove the foil and stir in the peas. Cook for 10 minutes more until the bacon is crisp and the peas just cooked.
• Serve this as a main dish together with rice (serves 3) or as a side dish (serves up to eight).
