Belgian endive, also known as chicory, is a smooth, pale bulb-like vegetable that is grown in the absence of light. Like white asparagus, this technique prevents the vegetable from turning green. Like most types of chicory, Belgian endive is bitter (the whiter the bulb the less bitter it will be), but roasting it helps to bring out its natural sweetness. We love these simply roast Belgian endives with vinaigrette as a side for roast chicken or pork tenderloin
