A creamy piquant dressing compliments the endive's mild bitterness. I use purple and green endive for contrast. The dressed salad can stay crisp for up to 2 hours; making it a perfect buffet salad.

Ingredients
  • Dressing:
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup toasted walnut oil
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • zest of one small lemon
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tsp country dijon mustard
  • 3 tbsp honey or sweeten to taste
  • kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
  • Salad:
  • 1/2 lb. fresh button mushrooms, very thinly sliced
  • 5 oz Gruyere (or quality swiss cheese such as emmentaler), cut into long thin strips
  • 3-4 heads belgian endive
  • 1 cup toasted walnuts, coarsely chopped
  • fresh chives, for garnish

Directions
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Combine the mushrooms and cheese in a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss. Set aside.
  3. Trim the ends of the endive and separate the leaves.
  4. Line a large platter (or individual salad plates) with the endive leaves and fill center with the mushroom mixture. You can also make this finger food for a party by just filling the individual endive leaves with the mushroom mixture. Garnish with fresh chives.

I love endives. Thank you for posting it :)


The dressing alone is a knock out.
You really know my taste as a great caterer should.
Thank you for sending me this Luisa.
