Description
In the kitchen, escarole shines in numerous applications. Its sturdy leaves hold up well in soups and stews, such as the classic Italian wedding soup, where it provides both texture and flavor. When sautéed with garlic and olive oil, it transforms into a simple yet flavorful side dish. Escarole can also be enjoyed raw in salads, where its slight bitterness pairs beautifully with sweet or tangy dressings.
Recipe
Classic Italian White Bean & Escarole Soup
Serves 4–6 | Ready in 35 minutes
A warm, brothy soup of tender escarole, creamy cannellini beans, garlic, and herbs—this dish is a staple in Southern Italian kitchens and a feel-good favorite that's hearty without being heavy.
Ingredients:
1 head escarole , trimmed and chopped
2 tbsp Texas olive oil
4 cloves garlic , minced
1 small yellow onion , diced
½ tsp red chili flakes (optional)
4 cups vegetable broth or chicken stock
2 cans cannellini beans , drained and rinsed
Salt & freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
Juice of ½ organic lemon
Optional: ½ cup grated Parmesan or Pecorino
Instructions:
Prep the greens:
Rinse chopped escarole well to remove any grit. Set aside.
Sauté aromatics:
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium. Add onion and garlic and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Add chili flakes if using.
Simmer the soup:
Stir in the broth and beans. Bring to a gentle boil. Add escarole, reduce to a simmer, and cook uncovered for 10–15 minutes, until greens are tender and flavorful.
Finish:
Season to taste with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Stir in grated cheese if desired for extra richness.
Serve hot with crusty bread or over cooked farro for a heartier meal.
Optional Additions:
Add cooked Texas Iberico ground pork or Force of Nature Italian meatballs
Stir in a spoonful of Savir Seco Verde Sauce for extra herbaceous depth
Garnish with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and fresh parsley
