A delicious italian chicory with anchovies and buttermilk dressing recipe.

Easy

Method

  1. Remove leaves and stalks (these can be a little bitter, keep them as I’m going to make a green goddess sauce with them)
  2. You will be left with the little bulbs- remove the base and peel back a centimetre of the outer layer - this exposes the sweeter part of the chicory
  3. Slice into thin batons and soak in salty iced water for about 10mins
  4. Remove and drain the excess water - leave to the side to dry
  5. Mix dressing - while your chicory is in iced water.
  6. Coat chicory with buttermilk dressing
  7. Finish with some good quality anchovies and oregano from the garden.
