Cornet de la Loire escarole
$4.00 – $6.00
(Cichorium endiva)
Crisp, juicy heads have a pleasant touch of bitterness. Escarole is ideal for autumnal salads; as frost begins and lettuce quits, it takes over to extend the salad season. Cornet de la Loire develops large, upright heads when summer sown for fall eating, and loose leaves with no head when spring planted.
