Directions:
Clean escarole and cut into pieces. Be sure it cut off the hard core.

Wash and rinse, then boil in 1/2 pot of boiling water. Add olive oil and garlic and simmer with cover partially open. We usually stick a wooden spoon between the pot and the cover.

Retain some of the water when serving so that you could dip Italian bread into it. Serve with a meat dish.

Personal Notes:
