Curly Head Salad with Orange Vinaigrette<BR>by Karen Berman Curly Head Salad with Orange Vinaigrette
by Karen Berman
This fun salad gets its “curly head” from the lettuce patch, in the form of curly endive, which has delicate, ever-so-thin, twisted leaves.

(It’s also known as frisée, which is French for “curly.”) The mouth and eyes are made with orange segment “smiles” and grapes. And you make the nose with a homemade crouton. You can use a whole head of curly endive, or frisée, if you can find one and don’t mind its slightly bitter flavor. The elegant salad is nice enough for company—whether you make individual “heads” or just toss it in a large bowl. > MORE
