Radicchio, Frisée, and Artichoke SaladRichard Gerhard Jung

Insalata di Radicchio, Frisée, e Carciofi

Including raw artichokes in a salad is an Italian trademark — their flavor is fresher and milder than that of cooked artichokes.

Active time: 40 min Start to finish: 1 hr

Cooks' notes:

• Dressing ingredients can be whisked together (instead of tossed into salad) 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature before using. • Greens can be washed and trimmed 1 day ahead and chilled in a sealed plastic bag lined with damp paper towels. • Artichokes can be trimmed (but not sliced) 2 hours ahead and kept in acidulated water. *Available at Asian markets, some cookware shops, and Uwajimaya (800-899-1928).
