Belgium endive (chicory) has a small head of cream-colored, bitter leaves. It is grown completely underground or indoors in the absence of sunlight in order to prevent the leaves from turning green and opening up. Exposure to light turns it to green and bitter so store in a brown paper bag in the crisper. It’s an excellent source of vitamins A and C, and a good source of dietary fiber.
