Winter Salad with Radicchio and Oranges.
The red radicchio from Treviso is nicknamed “the lobster of the earth” or “the flower you eat”. For me, these nicknames are fitting because it’s really tasty and also beautiful to look at.
I never buy it because it’s quite expensive, but the other day I found it at an acceptable price and I bought it.
This winter salad is truly a special dish because it combines fresh and contrasting flavors and is perfect for livening up meals during the colder months.
The late Treviso radicchio, with its crunchy and slightly bitter leaves, pairs perfectly with the sweetness and acidity of the oranges.
To prepare this salad, you’ll just need to finely slice the radicchio and peel the oranges.
You can enrich the dish and add crunchiness by including toasted walnuts and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil to enhance the flavors.
Balsamic vinegar will complete this simple yet delicious salad, which can be served as a side dish or a detox meal.
So what are you waiting for? Let’s make this winter salad with radicchio and oranges together.
Wow, it’s so good!
