About Frisee

Frisée, also known as curly endive, is a leafy green vegetable from the chicory family, often used in salads for its crisp texture and mildly bitter flavor. Originating from the Mediterranean region, this versatile green is a staple in French cuisine, frequently featured in dishes such as frisée aux lardons. Nutritionally, frisée is low in calories yet rich in vitamins and minerals, including vitamin A, vitamin C, folate, and manganese, which support immune health, vision, and cell function. It also provides dietary fiber, aiding digestion and promoting satiety. With its high water content, frisée is hydrating and refreshing. However, its slightly bitter taste may not appeal to all palates. Often paired with sweet or savory dressings, it adds complexity to meals without excessive fat or sugar. Its versatility makes it an excellent choice for those seeking nutrient-dense, low-calorie greens to complement a balanced diet.
