Have you never grilled Trevisano or Radicchio? I don’t blame you. I feel sorry for you but I don’t blame you. They’re not the most common vegetables in the world and if you don’t treat them right they can be bitter spicy (the kind of spicy you don’t want) and unpleasant.

The first time I tasted radicchio that blew me away was at my good friend Deborah Krasner’s house. We had fired up the big pizza oven she has in the middle of her living room for a make-your-own-pizza party. All of the pies were amazing but the one that really blew me away was topped with radicchio and a little blue cheese.
