Radicchio
Radicchio is an exotic Italian salad ingredient related to chicory. The distinctive plant grows in a rich maroon color with white veins and has a peppery flavor that adds a textural bite to salads. It is sometimes grilled or roasted, making a pleasant counterpoint to other grilled vegetables.
Radicchio resembles lettuce most in appearance, although it is not in the lettuce family. It forms tight heads of leaves furled around a central core and grows low to the ground. Radicchio makes a startling splash of color in the garden, and its natural bitterness makes it less subject to depredation by garden pests.
It is an excellent source of vitamins A and C.
