Salad!
Now of course the great debate of...is it "en-dive" or "on-deeve"? :P
Have you seen that commercial with the woman chatting on her cell phone and says it's definitely on-deeve? Too funny!
We need to ask MiniLaura!!

Well you know people from the Boston area are sure to pronounce it differently then everywhere else in the world so............................
Apparently both are correct. From the official endive site:
CURLY ENDIVE = EN-DIVE = LOVES THE LIGHT
Grown outdoors, endive (pronounced en-dive) is the wild member of the family, with curly, deeply-indented disheveled leaves. It is often called curly endive.*A tamer looking version is called escarole.**Frisee is a smaller headed variety with fine leaves and a semi-blanched center.*In some parts of the U.S., it’s called chicory.
BELGIAN ENDIVE = ON-DEEV = FRIEND OF THE DARK
So what is endive (on-deev)? Most often referred to as Belgian endive, it could be called the elegant member of the chicory family, with its tightly packed leaves and smooth, elongated shape. Unlike curly endive or other chicory's, its final growth takes place in the dark, contributing to its white or blanched color.
Nice research Pinkster! So I guess we're growing curly endive!
I'm still going to pronounce it on-deeve, with a snooty british accent.Nice research Pinkster! So I guess we're growing curly endive!
It's EN-dive!
