Ingredients

    2 tablespoons crème fraîche
    2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
    1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
    1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
    6 cups torn escarole hearts (from about 2 heads)
    2 tablespoons rinsed capers
    Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
    ¼ cup shaved peeled horseradish

Tips

Soaking the onion mellows its sharpness. If you can’t find fresh horseradish, add 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish to the crème fraîche mixture.


Directions

Soak onion in a small bowl of ice water at least 30 minutes. Drain and pat dry.

Whisk crème fraîche, oil, lemon juice, and vinegar in a large bowl. Add escarole, capers, and drained onion; season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.

Top salad with horseradish and season with more pepper.


Do Ahead: Onion can be soaked 2 hours ahead. Drain just before using.
