Best 5 Radicchio Salad With Anchovy Vinaigrette Recipes

SALAD WITH ANCHOVY-MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• To make the dressing, use the flat side of a knife or a mortar and pestle to make a paste out of garlic and a pinch of salt. In a small bowl, whisk together garlic paste, anchovy, mustard and lemon juice. Slowly whisk in oil until combined. Season with salt and pepper and more lemon if desired.
• In a large bowl, toss enough dressing with arugula and radicchio to lightly coat leaves. Serve immediately.

RADICCHIO WITH WALNUT ANCHOVY SAUCE

Steps:

• Rinse anchovies briefly and chop. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over low heat in a small skillet and add anchovies and garlic. Stir until garlic is fragrant and just beginning to color and anchovies have broken down into smaller bits. Transfer to a mortar and pestle. Use pestle to grind mixture into a paste. Add lemon juice or vinegar to the still-hot pan and stir to deglaze bottom of pan, then transfer to mortar and pestle. Add mustard. Work together, then slowly add 3 tablespoons of olive oil and walnut oil, one tablespoon at a time, working each tablespoon into anchovy mixture before adding next. Work in walnuts and mash with the pestle until the sauce is thick. Season to taste with freshly ground pepper (the anchovies should provide enough salt).
• Heat a heavy cast iron pan over medium heat or prepare a medium-hot grill. Cut radicchio into wedges - about 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick at the widest point. Place in a bowl and toss with remaining olive oil. It should be lightly coated all over. Season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning often, until lightly colored, charred in places and soft, about 8 to 10 minutes (do this in batches if using a pan).
• Arrange radicchio on plates or on a platter. Either drizzle the sauce over the radicchio or serve it in ramekins with each serving. Serve radicchio hot or at room temperature.

RADICCHIO SALAD WITH EASY RASPBERRY VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• To a blender, add the Italian dressing, 1/2 of the raspberries, and the sugar substitute, and blend for a minute until smooth.
• Line a bowl or plate with whole radicchio leaves and pile high the lettuce mix in the center. Cut a tomato into 4 wedges and place around the plate in a starburst fashion with a heart of palm stick in between each. Sprinkle with minced bell peppers. Pour raspberry vinaigrette over the salad and top with a few fresh raspberries. Serve.

ANCHOVY VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except shallot in a blender, and turn the machine on. A creamy emulsion will form within 30 seconds. Taste, and add more vinegar if necessary, about a teaspoon at a time, until the balance tastes right.
• Add shallot, and turn machine on and off a few times, until shallot is minced within the dressing. Taste, adjust seasoning and serve. (This vinaigrette is best made fresh but will keep refrigerated for a few days. Before using, bring it back to room temperature, and whisk briefly.)

CHICORY SALAD WITH LEMON ANCHOVY VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Finely grate the zest from the lemon. Squeeze the juice from the lemon, and discard the seeds. Combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, mustard, and anchovies in a small bowl. Whisk in the olive oil, and sprinkle with the salt and pepper.
• Discard the outer leaves of the radicchio and escarole. Cut out the tough cores, and tear the leaves into bite-size pieces. Place in a mixing bowl. Season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with salad dressing. Lightly toss to coat. Serve on salad plates.
