Description

L'endive est une variété de culture biologique, délicieusement parfumée et tendre, à larges feuilles. Cette variété a de délicieuses feuilles larges, vert foncé et tendres, au goût délicieux et au cœur bien rempli. Cette ancienne variété très utilisée pousse lentement et résiste bien au froid et à l'humidité. Elle ne jaunit pas facilement.

Ce légume délicieux, sain et tendre est très polyvalent et facile à cultiver. Utilisez l'endive dans les salades, les sautés, les ragoûts, les ragoûts et les ragoûts de purée de pommes de terre. La saveur légèrement amère de l'endive se marie très bien avec le fromage, le bacon, les pommes de terre, la laitue, le poisson, la viande et les légumes sucrés comme les carottes, les tomates et les poivrons. Annuelle rustique.

Good to know
  • Substantial, sturdy leaf structure holds up to hot soups, cooking, and heavy salad dressings without wilting
  • Highly cold-tolerant variety that thrives well into late autumn and handles light frosts with ease
  • Blanching the inner head by tying outer leaves together 2 weeks before harvest yields an ultra-tender, mild center
  • Has a naturally zesty, bitter flavor profile that may be too strong for growers accustomed to sweet lettuces
  • Unblanched outer leaves can become tough if grown under hot, dry midsummer conditions without ample water
