INFORMATION

1) If you want to remove the bitterness from the radicchio, soak it for 1 hour in cold water with a splash of vinegar and lemon juice. Then drain it and use it.

2) If you want to keep the intense red color of the radicchio, know that it is the cooking liquids that turn the radicchio dark brown. If you fry it, for example, the red remains intense. To keep the color intense, add acid to the cooking water, either with vinegar or lemon.

3) If you want to store radicchio in the refrigerator, wrap it in food-grade paper. Stored this way, radicchio lasts up to a week. To freeze radicchio, you need to blanch it for two minutes in boiling water slightly acidulated with a tablespoon of lemon juice.

Hello everyone and welcome to my blog. My name is Francesca, a true native of Taranto. I love cooking desserts and traditional dishes, and my inspiration comes from the women in my family. Photography, for me, is about capturing the moment… in a shot, you hold your breath and then start again, savoring every little detail as you develop it. Why Ethra? She was the wife of Phalanthus, the founder of Taranto, the Spartan city. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you all… there are already so many of you following me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
