Radicchio Tardivo alla Griglia

This kind of radicchio is very different from usual varieties. From the city of Treviso, it is called tardivo because it is harvested late in the season after the first frost. It is not as pink and grows into a uniquely shaped plant with elongated leaves and pronounced white cores, tinged with red. Less bitter but rich in taste, this radicchio can be expensive in price because of its long production process, but believe me it is absolutely delicious and completely worth it.
