  1. I don't wish to rate this because it's my first time using endive as the only lettuce in a salad and we found it far too bitter to eat and the dijon dressing seemed to clash with it terribly. Perhaps it was the *type* of endive? We've had this lettuce as one of, say, 5 variations in a mix, but then its bitterness is tempered by the other greens. To this salad I added some crispy baked prosciutto pieces and we ended up eating only those and the avocado. Thank you anyway for posting.
