Organic Chicory (250g) Australia

Chicory, a leafy vegetable with deep roots in European culinary traditions, is known for its slightly bitter, nutty flavour. Often used in salads, sautés, or as a coffee substitute, it brings a unique depth to both raw and cooked dishes.

Rich in fibre, vitamin K, and antioxidants, chicory promotes healthy digestion, supports bone health, and helps reduce inflammation. Its natural prebiotics, particularly inulin, nourish gut bacteria for improved gut health.

Barry’s tips: Toss chicory leaves into a salad with a light vinaigrette to balance its bitterness, or grill the heads for a caramelised, smoky side. You can also roast its roots to make a caffeine-free coffee alternative.
