Time to Check Out Chicory

You may never have heard of this edible root, but this January, give it a try in salads, casseroles, and more! You can even use it to flavor up your morning coffee! You may be familiar with chicory greens by the names of endive, escarole, and radicchio. Look for crisp, green leaves that are uniform in color. If you see new growth, give it a pass. It's past its prime. Experiment and enjoy the flavor!
