ROASTED BALSAMIC RADICCHIO

• Arrange radicchio wedges, 1 cut side up, on rimmed baking sheet. Roast until wilted, about 12 minutes. Turn over and roast until tender, about 8 minutes longer.
• Arrange radicchio on platter, drizzle with balsamic vinegar, and serve.

GRILLED RADICCHIO

• Place radicchio in a large bowl. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and salt; toss to coat.

SEARED RADICCHIO WITH BALSAMIC AND PARMESAN

Steps:

• Cut each radicchio through the core into 4 even wedges. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Place the radicchio, cut-side down, in the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Sear the radicchio until the bottoms brown and wilt slightly, about 3 minutes. Turn the wedges over and sear the other sides, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the radicchio to a plate. Add the balsamic vinegar to the pan and boil until syrupy and reduced by about half, about 1 minute. Return the radicchio to the pan and toss to glaze with the balsamic syrup. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the radicchio among 4 plates. Using a vegetable peeler, shave large pieces of cheese over the top. Serve warm.

BALSAMIC STEAK WITH RADICCHIO

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steaks with salt and pepper. When the pan is hot, add 1 tablespoon butter, swirling the pan to coat. Add the steaks, sprinkle them with a pinch of sugar, and sear until golden brown on the bottom, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook until golden on the other side, 2 more minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and tent with foil.
• Reduce the heat to medium and add 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet. Add the garlic and cook 20 seconds. Add the radicchio in batches, tossing until wilted. Sprinkle with 1 to 2 teaspoons sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add the sun-dried tomatoes and vinegar and cook until the vinegar evaporates slightly, about 1 minute. Add the broth and cook until the radicchio is tender, about 2 minutes. Stir in the basil. Transfer the radicchio to plates using tongs. Continue cooking the sauce until it thickens slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter.
• Thinly slice the steak and add to the plates. Drizzle with the sauce and top with more sun-dried tomatoes and basil.

BRAISED TREVISO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Trim stalk of each radicchio to 1/2 inch. Split radicchio in half lengthwise through the stalk.
• Place radicchio cut-side up in a baking dish just large enough to hold the four pieces. Tuck butter between leaves of each half.
• Sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper. Pour in stock to a depth of 1 1/2 inches. Cover tightly with aluminum foil. Cook 20 minutes.
• Uncover carefully to avoid steam and turn the radicchio pieces over. Recover and cook an additional 20 minutes, or until a skewer easily pierces the stalk ends.
• Drain, reserving the stock for another use, and serve radicchio as a side dish.
