Ingredients

  • 12 ounces walnut pieces
  • 1 cup grated Grana Padano or Parmigiano-Reggiano
  • 4 heads radicchio di Treviso (about 1 1/4 pounds), cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 3 heads Belgian endive (about 12 ounces), cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

Method

  • Toast walnuts in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low, and sprinkle with 1/2 cup of the grated cheese; cook, stirring constantly, until cheese just melts and coats the nuts, about 1 minute.
  • Remove the pan from heat, but leave the nuts in the skillet so they stay warm (but not hot).
  • Combine radicchio and endive in a large serving bowl.
  • Drizzle with the oil and vinegar, and season with the salt.
  • Toss to coat the leaves with the dressing.
  • Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup grated cheese, and add the warm walnuts.
  • Toss well again, and serve.
