Balsamic-Marinated Radicchio with Fresh RicottaRoland Bello
Radicchio is a type of chicory with an alluring bittersweet flavor. The variety called Treviso, so named for its growing region in Italy, has tapering, wine-colored leaves. Its charm increases exponentially when it's cooked—in this case, broiled—and tossed with a sweet balsamic dressing. Fresh basil and a dollop of creamy ricotta round everything out.
Cooks Notes:
Radicchio can be marinated, chilled after 1 hour, up to 8 hours. Bring to room temperature before serving.
