Endive is a smooth variety of escarole of Spanish origin, specially cultivated in Spain. Available in 400 g trays, it generally comes in a size of 3 units per tray. Its best season is from autumn to winter. This vegetable is highly valued not only for its crunchy texture but also for its slightly bitter taste. It is highly nutritious, rich in fiber and water, making it a perfect ally for weight loss diets. It contains essential vitamins like E, A, B1, B2, B6, and C, as well as minerals, folic acid, niacin, antioxidants, and beta-carotene. Thanks to its composition, endive stands out for its beneficial properties for the digestive system: it helps eliminate gas and acidity, promotes intestinal mucosa, and regulates both cholesterol and intestinal transit. It also acts as a diuretic, improving blood circulation and preventing arteriosclerosis. Due to its freshness and crunch, endive is very versatile in the kitchen and can be used in salads or cooked dishes, adding a touch of health and flavor.
