Ingredients

  • 1 head Radicchio
  • 1 large bulb Fennel
  • 1/3 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano shavings
  • 1/4 pound Proscuitto
  • 1/4 cup Balsamic Vinegar (use white if you have it)
  • 3/4 cup Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
  • Pinch Sugar
  • 1 Small Shallot Minced
  • Kosher Salt & Freshly Ground Black Pepper to Taste

Method

  • Core and slice the fennel as thinly as possible. Core and half the radicchio; slice into tagliatelle sized ribbons. Cut the proscuitto the same size as the radicchio.
  • Mix vinegar, mustard, sugar, shallot, and salt & pepper together. Slowly whisk in olive oil or put all ingredients in a container with a tight fitting lid and shake to emulsify.
  • Shave Parmigiano-Reggiano with a vegetable peeler and combine with radicchio, fennel, and proscuitto. Mix salad with enough of the vinaigrette to adequately dress. Let sit in refrigerator for 30 minutes, then serve.
