This is an easy to prepare salad serving as a satisfying
meal because of its full flavor. Radicchio comes in various levels of
compactness and reddish color. In any case it is very refreshing on a hot
summer day. |
Served
This is salad heaven for gustatory adventures providing an unexpected rich pallet of invigorating flavors and textures. The natural bitterness of the green is buffered by the added green leaf lettuce but contrasted by the liquorish sweet taste of the fennel and the rich sweet bosc pears. The crisp but firm texture all of the greens enhance their presentation. |
