Endive And Pear Salad

Dairy-free and nut-free endive salad, fresh and fit for seasonal eating ideas!

It is highly recommended to eat what is in season, especially for fresh produce. I read somewhere that one of winter veggies is Belgian endive, while I am sure that I always find it in the grocery store all year long. Also, I am sure right now even more in stock. So, while grocery shopping, I noticed a nice looking Belgian endive, and came to my mind about making a salad that incorporates pear on it.

  • A bowl Of Endive And pear Salad

While most recipes out there recommend pairing endive with nuts, but I would like a salad that is easy enough with all ingredient we have in the pantry and of course has to be dairy free. So, I use lemon for the tartness, and honey for the sweetness. As you know Belgian endive has chicory taste but it surprisingly pairs well with honey and lemon. Fresh and not too sweet but also not too salty.

How To Make Endive And Pear Salad

Serves: 2

Ingredient

  • 2 Belgian endive, trimmed, separate the leaves
  • 2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • 1 bartlett pear, sliced
  • 1 small shallot, sliced

For dressing

  • Juice from half lemon
  • 1 small shallot
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley
  • 1/2 tsp salt (I use Himalayan salt)
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 2 tbsp canola oil (feel free to use any oil you like)
  • 1 tbsp water

Direction

  • In serving bowl or plate, arrange the Belgian endive, lettuce, shallot, and pear. In a blender.
  • whisk all ingredients for the salad dressing. Pour and mix the dressing over salad, garnish the salad with more parsley and serve.

Recipe Notes

If you have a chance to try this Endive And Pear Salad recipe, let me know! Leave a comment and don’t forget to tag the photo #craftyforhome on Instagram, I would like to know if you like the salad as much as I do.

I like to use the Himalayan salt for salad. There always one with the fine granule salt available in the grocery store. But, fine sea salt is perfectly fine to use on this recipe.

If you are avoiding honey for some reason like dietary restriction, feel free to use maple syrup or agave syrup. I also use canola oil because it is a light oil variety. Also feel free to use any oil you like, such as olive, sunflower, or avocado oil. But I think the light tasting oil is better for this recipe.

What To Serve With Endive Salad

By the taste, it would be perfect to pair the salad with roasted chicken, duck or fish. But I would definitely pair this salad with summer barbeque too if there is Belgian endive available in store. I am also very sure this is one of my favorites salad and pair well with the Shrimp Skewer.

More fresh salad you can try.

  • Strawberry Salsa
  • Apple Fennel Salad

Try to pair it with these recipes.

  • Sheet Pan Chicken Onion
  • Baked Fish And Chips
  • Roasted Duck With Herb

      Thank you, yes the dressing and the salad has a balance flavour, definitely fresh and tasty, between sweet from Pear, chicory from endive and zesty from the dressing ?
