Preparation

How to prepare the grilled radicchio recipe

1

First of all, take your radicchio heads and make sure you clean them well . To do this, remove the final part and possibly the outermost layer of leaves, divide it into four without removing the leaves and rinse it thoroughly under running water. Once you have removed any residual soil, shake it well and dry it externally.

2

Heat a griddle or grill and, once hot, add the radicchio. Cook it for 1 minute on each side so that the outside becomes tender while the center remains crunchy.

3

Transfer it to a plate and prepare the emulsion. Finely chop the parsley and garlic and mix with oil , salt and pepper . Use everything to season the radicchio once it has cooled.

For a stronger flavour, enrich the emulsion with a spoonful of balsamic vinegar . Alternatively, we recommend trying it with our yogurt sauce or with walnuts and honey , a particular but perfect combination to enhance the taste of radicchio.

Grilled radicchio can be made with any variety of radicchio . We used the late one but the early one is also fine. If you don't like the bitter taste of the dish but still want to try your hand at the recipe, here's a trick: once cleaned, leave it to soak for a couple of hours in cold water.

Did you know that it is also possible to cook radicchio in the oven and in an air fryer ?
