Treviso Radicchio, 250g

Treviso Radicchio 250g is 250g of Treviso radicchio — the elongated, elegant variety from the Veneto region of northern Italy. Treviso radicchio is more delicate and slightly less bitter than round Chioggia radicchio. As a result, it suits both raw preparations and grilling, where its bitterness mellows into a rich, caramelised sweetness. Furthermore, it is a revered ingredient in Venetian cuisine and makes a beautiful risotto, a classic grilled antipasto or an elegant salad.

About Treviso Radicchio 250g

We source our vegetables and seasonal produce from specialist growers across Britain and Europe. In particular, we select every variety for its flavour, condition and provenance. As a result, the produce we deliver meets a standard well above what most supermarkets carry. Furthermore, we prioritise seasonal and heritage varieties over commodity produce. These varieties exist because growers selected them for taste, not yield or shelf life. However, they require more care and attention to grow. In particular, heritage and specialty vegetables often have shorter seasons and more demanding growing conditions. Additionally, we work with growers who share our commitment to quality. A short supply chain from grower to your door makes all the difference to freshness. That is why Treviso Radicchio 250g from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning cooks.

Why Choose Treviso Radicchio 250g From Us

Cooking with genuinely seasonal and specialty produce transforms everyday dishes. In contrast to commodity vegetables, these varieties carry a depth of flavour that rewards simple treatment. As a result, the best preparation is often the simplest. Furthermore, freshness is everything with vegetables. We deliver direct from our suppliers so you cook with produce at its peak. However, even the finest vegetables need a little attention in the kitchen. In particular, most benefit from minimal cooking rather than long boiling. Moreover, good olive oil, sea salt and a little acidity — lemon juice or a splash of vinegar — bring out the best in almost everything. Additionally, the variety and provenance of what you cook matters. That is why we choose these ingredients so carefully.

How to Cook Treviso Radicchio 250g

To get the very best from Treviso Radicchio 250g:

• Halve lengthways and grill on a hot griddle with olive oil for 3 to 4 minutes per side until caramelised and just wilted.
• Use raw in a composed salad with sweet elements — pears, blood oranges or pomegranate to balance the bitterness.
• Furthermore, Treviso radicchio makes an outstanding risotto — shred and add to the rice for the final 5 minutes of cooking.
• Additionally, braise slowly in red wine, olive oil and a little balsamic vinegar for a rich, deeply flavoured side dish.

Perfect Pairings

Treviso Radicchio 250g pairs beautifully with:

• Aged balsamic vinegar, Gorgonzola and walnuts — the classic Venetian combination
• Blood oranges, pomegranate or ripe pears to balance the bitterness
• An Amarone, Valpolicella Ripasso or a Barbera d’Asti alongside
• Prosciutto, speck or aged Parmesan as Italian charcuterie partners

Storage: Keep refrigerated and use within a few days of delivery. Most vegetables are best stored unwashed in the fridge. However, root vegetables and onions keep well in a cool, dark, dry place. Furthermore, use as soon as possible after delivery for the finest flavour. Delivered fresh and ready to prepare.

However you prepare it, Treviso Radicchio 250g brings a depth of flavour and quality to the table that commodity produce simply cannot match. Moreover, cooking with the finest seasonal produce is one of the great pleasures of the kitchen.
