A compact escarole, Eros grows a dense head of sweet and mildly bitter leaves quickly and easily. With leaves wider and more tender than endive, Escarole is my favorite green for warm salads but it can also be lightly sautéed or tossed into soups and stews, of which a classic is the celebrated Italian Wedding Soup.
