Belgian Endive with Cheese and Honey
Treat your family to something elegant — fancy dishes can be simple to make! Belgian endive with cheese and honey is an incredible combination, finger-licking good! The Gorgonzola sauce comes out thick and irresistible. It's best to cook the endive in butter so each piece turns out as tender as possible with a light golden color. The walnuts fit right into the flavor lineup, and the honey adds its own aroma to round out the dish.

- Toast the walnuts in a dry skillet, with no oil, for 5–10 minutes. Let them cool a bit, chop them coarsely with a knife, put them in a bowl, add the honey, and stir. 2. Halve the endive lengthwise. Melt part of the butter (20 grams) in a skillet and fry the endive halves for 5–8 minutes, then flip them and keep frying over low heat for another 10–15 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Fry the second batch the same way, adding a little more butter. 3. In a small saucepan, melt the remaining butter, add the flour, stir, and cook over low heat for about 5 minutes. Then add the milk and, stirring constantly, reduce the sauce to a thick consistency. Take it off the heat and add the cheese a bit at a time, whisking after each addition so it melts completely and the sauce is smooth. 4. Cut each endive half lengthwise into a couple more pieces so it's easy to eat. Pour a little white sauce onto a plate, set the endive on top, scatter with walnuts, and drizzle with extra honey if you like. Serve right away. Enjoy!
