Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 whole Treviso or Chioggia radicchio
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
2 cups strong veal stock
Kosher salt to taste
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Trim stalk of each radicchio to 1/2 inch. Split radicchio in half lengthwise through the stalk.
  • Place radicchio cut-side up in a baking dish just large enough to hold the four pieces. Tuck butter between leaves of each half.
  • Sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper. Pour in stock to a depth of 1 1/2 inches. Cover tightly with aluminum foil. Cook 20 minutes.
  • Uncover carefully to avoid steam and turn the radicchio pieces over. Recover and cook an additional 20 minutes, or until a skewer easily pierces the stalk ends.
  • Drain, reserving the stock for another use, and serve radicchio as a side dish.
