Does anyone grow either of these please? I have a lot of seeds but reluctant to grow them as I keep reading that they're "bitter". 
Are they?

Yes. They’re bitter. But some people like them. I’m not a fan. But then I think little gem is bitter and horrible.
Builder that would like to go play in the garden.

Does blanching them not take the bitterness away? Huh

I've had endive abroad and quite liked it, but never grown it.
