Follow The Directions

01

Step

For the Vinaigrette (5 minutes): In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, and chopped fresh oregano.

02

Step

Gradually whisk in the extra-virgin olive oil until the vinaigrette is smooth and emulsified. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

03

Step

Assemble the Salad (5 minutes): In a large salad bowl, combine the chopped radicchio, Belgian endive, arugula, freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, and toasted pine nuts.

04

Step

Dress and Serve (2 minutes): Pour the vinaigrette over the salad ingredients and toss gently to ensure even coating. Divide the salad onto four chilled salad plates and serve immediately.

For the best flavor, use high-quality, imported Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
To toast pine nuts, spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly golden, watching carefully to prevent burning. Alternatively, toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until golden and fragrant.
The vinaigrette can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature before using.

    I love the combination of textures and flavors in this Insalata Tricolore. The bitterness of the radicchio is balanced perfectly by the sweetness of the endive and the peppery arugula.
