Radicchio

About Me: Radicchio is a bitter green. It is also known as Italian Chicory because of it's prevalence in Italian cooking. Radicchio has a bitter and sometimes spicy flavour but can be mellowed when cooked. It comes in various shapes such as round or elongated and ranges in colour from green to vibrant red. Radicchio contains many important vitamins and minerals such as Vitamin K, Zinc, Copper, Potassium, and Vitamin C.

To Store: Keep radicchio in a mesh cotton bag, or paper towel, and then place inside a reused plastic bag, or airtight container inside your fridge crisper. It will keep for about 1 - 1.5  weeks.
