Chef's Tips
Toasted walnuts add a deeper flavor and crunch. Toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant and lightly browned.
For a slightly milder flavor, soak the endive leaves in ice water for 10-15 minutes before assembling the salad.
If you don't have Roquefort, you can substitute with another blue cheese like Gorgonzola or Stilton.
