Excellent winter salad, and winter braising green. Hardier and longer-keeping than lettuce, and is good both raw and cooked. Escarole has wider leaves than frisee, and a pale, mild blanched heart. Use it like either lettuce or kale. Escarole is used in Italy for salad, braising with meat, stuffing whole, ravioli, risotto, ansoup. It is especially good with pork, is often combined with white beans, or in chicken soup. Treat like a slower-growing lettuce, for spring and especially fall crops. 200 seeds
