BRAISED ENDIVE IN MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add endive, and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Pour stock into skillet; bring to a boil, and cover. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer, turning endive occasionally, until just tender, about 20 minutes.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer endive to a paper-towel-lined plate; discard stock. Pat endive dry, and set aside.
• Make dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together mustard and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Whisking constantly, pour in oil in a slow, steady stream; whisk until emulsified.

ENDIVE SALAD WITH CANDIED WALNUTS, ORANGE CARAMEL DRESSING AND BLUE CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Arrange the walnuts on a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and place in the center of the oven. Toast until the nuts are golden brown, really toasted, 5 to 8 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Spray a parchment paper-lined baking sheet with nonstick spray. In a large saute pan, heat the sugar over medium heat until it melts and turns a light amber color, 5 to 8 minutes. Sprinkle the walnuts in a single layer over the caramel. Spray a rubber spatula with nonstick spray and stir the nuts, quickly but carefully, to coat with the caramel. Transfer the nuts from the pan onto the prepared baking sheet, sprinkling the nuts so they separate as they land on the parchment. Season with salt.
• To the pan with the residual caramel, add the vinegar and orange juice. Warm the pan, whisking until the caramel, vinegar and orange juice are well combined. Remove from the heat. Whisk in the mustard and oil. Adjust the seasoning.
• Arrange the endive and radicchio leaves in a single layer on a family-style large platter. Intersperse the orange segments and walnuts with the endive and radicchio. Season with salt to taste. Drizzle with all of the dressing. Top with the blue cheese and parsley. Serve immediately.

MY FAVORITE ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Set up a grill for even medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, build coals evenly along the bottom.
• Whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, mustard, horseradish, lemon juice and zest in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside. Place the asparagus, endive and onions on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with the olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Place on the grill and cook, turning once, until tender-crisp and lightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Serve drizzled with the dressing and topped with the tarragon leaves, if using.

ENDIVE AND AVOCADO SALAD

Steps:

• Whisk together the mustard, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to make a vinaigrette. Remove a 1/2-inch from the stem end of each endive, discard the core, and cut the rest across into 1-inch chunks. Cut the avocados into large dice or wedges. Toss the avocados and endive with the vinaigrette. Season, to taste, and serve at room temperature.
• Note: Haas avocados are the brown ones from California. The green ones don't have nearly as much flavor.

CURLY ENDIVE SALAD WITH MUSTARD DRESSING, EGG AND GRUYèRE

Steps:

• Bring a small pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add eggs (the water should cover them), and return to a boil. Adjust heat so that the water is at a brisk simmer. For a runny yolk, cook for 7 minutes; for a gooey center, cook for 8 minutes; for a slightly moist center, cook for 9 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare an ice bath.
• Immediately drain eggs and plunge into ice water to cool. When cool, crack and peel eggs. (Eggs can be cooked and peeled up to several hours in advance, and refrigerated.) Roughly chop eggs into haphazard slices.
• Put vinegar, mustard and garlic in a small bowl. Whisk with a fork to dissolve. Slowly whisk in olive oil to make a slightly thick dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Put endive in a low, wide salad bowl and sprinkle very lightly with salt. Add dressing to taste and toss well. Transfer greens to individual plates. Top with chopped egg. With a vegetable peeler, shave thin slices of Gruyère over each salad.
