how long do you boil escarole
Step 2. Boil 1 to 1 1/2 qt. of water in a large pot. When the water has reached a rolling boil, dump the escarole for 2 minutes, stirring once or twice as the stems soften. Lift the escarole out with a slotted spoon onto a plate and transfer to the colander where you may leave it to drain for up to an hour.
