Belgian Endive With Egg Salad Recipes

BELGIAN ENDIVE WITH EGG SALAD

Steps:

• Mix together the chopped eggs, mayo, mustard, celery salt, and minced dried onion.
• You can make the filling 1 day ahead- at this point, you'd need to cover and refrigerate it.
• Cut off and discard the root ends of endive, and separate leaves.
• Rinse leaves under cool running water, then shake dry.
• On the wide end of each leaf, place a generous teaspoon the egg mixture, and then place 1 shrimp atop each.
• Sprinkle each filled leaf with paprika.
• And now for the artistic portion of the program: for serving: on a large platter, arrange the filled leaves in concentric circles, resembling a flower. If you like, you can place colorful edible flowers in the middle and arrange the leaves around them, for a little color and artistry! You can arrange them on the platter 4 hours ahead, then cover and chill until serving.

• Add 2 tablespoons lemon juice, zest and Dijon mustard and stir well. Season with salt and pepper.
• Whisk in olive oil. Taste and adjust lemon juice, salt and pepper. Just before preparing salad, taste vinaigrette again and adjust seasoning as needed.
• Cut the bottoms off of endives and discard any withered outer leaves. Separate the leaves and pile them in a large salad bowl. (Cut the hearts in half or quarters lengthwise.) Add the radicchio, if using.
• Just before serving, sprinkle leaves lightly with salt and pepper, and drizzle with 2 tablespoons vinaigrette. Toss gently, then distribute among six to eight plates. Garnish each plate with an egg cut in half or into quarters, and an anchovy fillet, then drizzle plates with remaining dressing.

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.

Steps:

• Place eggs in single layer in 2-quart saucepan. Cover with cold water at least 1 inch above eggs. Cover saucepan; heat to boiling. Remove from heat; let stand covered 15 minutes. Drain. Immediately place eggs in cold water with ice cubes or run cold water over eggs until completely cooled.
• To peel, gently tap each egg on countertop until entire shell is finely crackled. Roll gently between hands to loosen shell. Starting at large end, peel egg under cold water to help remove shell.
• In medium bowl, chop eggs with knife or pastry blender. Add mayonnaise, curry powder, salt and pepper; mix with fork until blended. Spoon egg salad into endive leaves; sprinkle with onion.
