This elegant Belgian endive and walnut salad, known in Italy as insalata belga e noci, is a masterclass in balancing contrasting flavours and textures. The naturally bitter notes of the chicory are beautifully offset by the sweetness of crisp apples and the earthy richness of toasted walnuts. Bound together with a sharp cider vinegar and Dijon mustard dressing, it offers a refreshing palate cleanser or a sophisticated starter for any seasonal dinner party.
As a vibrant vegan dish, this salad is as nutritious as it is delicious, providing a wonderful source of healthy fats and fibre. It is exceptionally quick to assemble, making it an ideal choice for a light lunch or a crunchy side dish alongside roasted root vegetables. For the best results, use the freshest endive you can find and serve immediately to appreciate the satisfying crunch of the raw ingredients.
