STUFFED ESCAROLE
Steps:
- Soak the raisins or dried cranberries, covered in water, in a small bowl for 15 minutes. Rinse and drain the escarole well, but do not detach the leaves from the core. In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs, cheese, half the garlic, the anchovies, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, oregano, basil, and 3 tablespoons of the olive oil. Drain the raisins. Add half to the bread crumb mixture. Carefully spread the escarole leaves open to the center and stuff the filling in the middle. Close up the leaves and tie the escarole firmly with kitchen string so the filling will not fall out. Place the escarole bundle in a Dutch oven or slow cooker. Sprinkle on the remaining olive oil, garlic, and raisins. Add the water or wine, cover the pot, and cook over low heat for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the leaves have wilted and are soft. Carefully remove the escarole to a cutting board and cut off the strings. Cut the bundle crosswise into pieces and serve with the pan juices, and salt and pepper to taste.
