You can help make sure these frilly chicories don't go to waste by adding frisée to your next Imperfect order. Also known as curly endive, frisée can be eaten fresh, grilled, or braised, and makes for a delicious salad. It can stand up to bold, acidic flavors, so try pairing it with bleu cheese, mustardy vinaigrettes, and tart fruits.
