Frissée
Frissée are a member of the chicory family. Chicories are essential to any great salad! Some people think of chicories as weeds, but don’t be fooled, they’re packed with lots of flavor and nutrients!
Frissée has thin pale-yellow branch-like stems off a thicker main stem. The jagged, narrow chartreuse green leaves curl around one another in a tangled fashion. The leaves are soft, but the stem is crunchy and rigid.
Use frissée to add pizzazz to any salad, soup, vegetable saute or simply use it as a garnish.
