How to cook deliciously - Classic Endive Salad
1. Stage
Make the dressing: In a large serving bowl, stir the minced garlic into the olive oil. Roughly chop the anchovy fillets and add them to the oil. Add the salt and pepper and the sherry vinegar. Let the dressing sit and the oil infuse while you prep the endives (about 5 minutes).
2. Stage
Prep the endives: Strip off and discard any outer tired leaves from the endives. Cut off and discard the hard root end of the endives. Slice the endives crosswise into 1-inch wide pieces. Cut the core end, if thick, into halves or quarters.
3. Stage
Toss the endive with dressing: Add the chopped endive leaves to the serving bowl with the dressing, and toss gently until all of the endive leaves are lightly coated in the dressing. Serve immediately.
