RADICCHIO, GOAT CHEESE, AND RAISIN SALAD



Radicchio, Goat Cheese, and Raisin Salad image

This quick salad delivers a lot of flavor. The radicchio has a touch of bitterness, but the raisins bring in the sweet element, and the goat cheese the creamy complexity. It is a great appetizer, or can be a main course.

Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup golden raisins
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 pounds radicchio, cut into 1-inch shreds
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 pound fresh goat cheese (or Gorgonzola-dolce, or sweet, is best)

Steps:

  • Put the raisins in a small bowl, and pour the vinegar over them. Let soak for 15 minutes.
  • Pour the raisins and vinegar over the shredded radicchio in a large serving bowl. Drizzle with the olive oil, and season with the salt. Toss well to coat the salad with the dressing. Crumble the goat cheese into chunks over the salad, and gently toss again to distribute the cheese, taking care to keep it in chunks.
