Escarole and Edamame Salad

This vibrant escarole and edamame salad offers a refreshing blend of textures and sophisticated flavours. The slightly bitter notes of the escarole leaves are perfectly balanced by the sweet, nutty crunch of the protein-rich soya beans and the cooling brightness of fresh mint. Finished with a sharp red-wine vinegar dressing and a generous dusting of salty Parmigiano-Reggiano, it is a sophisticated vegetarian dish that feels both light and satisfying.

Ideal as a healthy midweek lunch or a crisp side dish for grilled mains, this salad celebrates simple, high-quality ingredients. Using frozen edamame makes this recipe exceptionally convenient and accessible year-round, while the addition of hard Italian cheese provides a savoury depth. Serve it immediately after tossing to ensure the leaves remain perfectly crisp and the flavours stay bright and zesty.
