I love using fresh radicchio leaves in winter salads. Their vibrant red color makes any salad the centerpiece of the table, and they’re incredibly versatile, pairing beautifully with a variety of (seasonal) ingredients, such as different types of cheeses - Brie, Camembert , Gorgonzola, Mozzarella, fruits - grapes, pomegranate , figs and dried figs, walnuts, almonds.. the list is long. Health benefits of radicchio:Radicchio is a powerhouse of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients and it's especially high in vitamin K, which is an important nutrient for healthy bodies and brains. Vitamin K may have a role in cognition, especially as people age. Radicchio also may help with weight loss since it’s a good source of the dietary fiber inulin — a type of soluble fiber found in many plants.This is a great combination of mildly bitter radicchio leaves, pungent gorgonzola cheese (I recommend using "gorgonzola dolce" due to its mild flavour), toasted walnuts which give a nutty flavor, and a vinaigrette with fig jam and parmesan.Ingredients for 2 people: A handful of walnuts 1 head of red radicchio 150 g of gorgonzola 1 slice of bread, cut into cubes 1 apple or pear sliced in cubes (optional)Vinaigrette: 1 tsp grainy mustard 1 tsp fig jam 1 tbsp lemon juice / balsamic vinegar50 ml extra virgin olive oil Salt and freshly ground pepper A pinch of dried thyme 2 tbsp grated parmesanInstructions: Toast the walnuts in the oven at 180°C for no more than 10 minutes. In the same tray roast the bread cubes, seasoned with olive oil.Wash the red radicchio leaves and arrange them in a salad bowl. Crumble the gorgonzola and add it to the salad, followed by the walnuts, apple (optional), croutons and vinaigrette. by @nevenabuljan
