Frisée

Frisée is part of the Chicory family and grows naturally as a narrow-leafed head vegetable. Frisée is a highly-prized specialty salad ingredient and preferred when the center of the head has been blanched.  It can add a bit of spice to your salads and the whiter frisée has a subtler flavor while greener frisee has a more intense flavor.
