Typically, a variety of salad green that forms a head with crisp, frilly, narrow, dark green leaves that curl at the edges. Chicory has a pleasantly bitter tang and a prickly texture. Chicory roots can be ground into a coffee substitute, which also is called chicory.

Recipes

    Frisee lettuce and radicchio stay relatively firm after they've been mixed with dressing, which means you don't have to worry about the salad going limp.
