When choosing greens for salads there are some perhaps that you are more familiar with than others but don't let this keep you from trying new combinations. You'll find yourself in for quite a treat. I'm thinking in particular of such greens as French or Belgian endive, escarole, Chinese cabbage and even spinach for salads. French or Belgian endive has a light green almost white head which is tightly packed into a shape resembling a fat cigar. The compact heads are 5 or 6 inches long with small leaves and are slightly bitter in taste. The leaves are usually kept whole to add texture, flavor, colour and shape to other torn greens in a salad. Another variety of endives escarole, its large, broad ruffled leaves shade from deep green on the outside to yellow in the center. Sturdy and crisp, escarole adds flavor to tossed salads and is particularly good in combination with lettuce leaves. Chinese or celery cabbage as it's sometimes called has some of the characteristics of romaine lettuce and cabbage. It's mostly used in slaws and salads or sliced and served much like that of hearts of lettuce. Look for long, oval-shaped heads that are firm, fresh and well-branched. Spinach is gaining in popularity as an ingredient in salads as well as a dark green garnish. The tiny inside leaves add colour and variety to any tossed salad, The next time you are using celery in your salad, don't throw away the tender leaves., they are great to use as salad ingredient. <1mn 57s>
