Ingredients
  

For the radicchio with balsamic vinegar

  • 1 radicchio rosso
  • 1 tablespoon of Balsamic Vinegar of Modena IGP
  • Fresh thyme
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • A drizzle of honey optional

For the toppings

  • 1 mozzarella Fior di Latte
  • 100 g pine nuts toasted
  • 1/4 pomegranate seeded
  • 100 g of arugula
  • Olive oil extra virgin

Instructions
 

  • If your pine nuts are not toasted, start by toasting them in a hot pan without adding fat for 5 minutes, stirring regularly. Set aside.
  • Wash the radicchio and cut it into quarters. Remove the white part (the heart) from the four quarters and cut the leaves roughly. In a pan, add a drizzle of olive oil and the radicchio. Add the fresh thyme. Add salt and pepper.
  • Sauté for 10 minutes until radicchio is tender but not overcooked. At the end of the cooking, add the balsamic vinegar.
  • Taste the radicchio and it is still too bitter for your taste, add a drizzle of honey.
  • Place arugula, radicchio with balsamic vinegar, pomegranate, mozzarella for di latte in the center. Sprinkle with toasted pine nuts and finish with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
