What is the orange stuff on the Endive Spears with Dill Cream? I looked carefully through the ingredients list & couldn’t find anything to explain the substance. Is it chili oil? Roe? Paprika?
Then, I thought, OMG, it’s some kind of vegan thing?
Hi Linda,
I do believe they are the crumbled cracker crumbs for a delicious crunch. Happy cooking!
