Printer Friendly
Serves 12 » Adapted from Epicurious.com

This salad is great as is, but try adding crumbled blue cheese and dried cranberries.

Ingredients:
    ¼ cup Brennan's Balsamic Vinegar
    1 tablespoon chopped shallot
    2 teaspoons honey
    ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
    ¼ cup Brennan's Extra Virgin Olive Oil
    2 heads radicchio (about 1 ¼ pounds)
    1 lb baby greens
    1 cup packed fresh flat-leafed parsley leaves

    Possible add-ons:
    Crumbled Blue Cheese
    Dried Cranberries


Preparation:

In a small bowl whisk together vinegar, shallot, honey, mustard, and salt and pepper to taste. Add oil in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified. Vinaigrette may be made 1 week ahead and chilled, covered. Bring vinaigrette to room temperature before using.

Trim radicchio and tear into bite-size pieces. In a large bowl toss together radicchio, baby greens, and parsley.

Just before serving, drizzle vinaigrette over salad and toss well with salt and pepper to taste.
