3 tablespoons
red wine vinegar
1
large head radicchio (3/4 pound), cored and coarsely shredded
5 ounces
arugula
1/4 pound
Crucolo, provolone, Taleggio, or Fontina cheese, grated
1/2 cup
roughly chopped lightly toasted hazelnuts
Instructions
- Heat the broiler to high.
- Whisk the red wine vinegar with 1/4 cup olive oil in a large bowl and season generously with salt and pepper. Add the radicchio and arugula and toss to coat them nicely. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
- Pile the salad on ovenproof plates or an ovenproof platter and top with the cheese. Broil the salad just until the cheese is melted, about 1 minute. Sprinkle the toasted hazelnuts on top and finish with a drizzle of saba. Serve right away.
