Wash the radicchio and escarole -- the chicories -- in advance, and keep them in the refrigerator so the salad will be cool and crisp when served.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lemon
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 anchovy fillets, finely chopped
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt, plus more for seasoning
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, plus more for seasoning
1 small head radicchio
1 small head escarole

Steps:

  • Finely grate the zest from the lemon. Squeeze the juice from the lemon, and discard the seeds. Combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, mustard, and anchovies in a small bowl. Whisk in the olive oil, and sprinkle with the salt and pepper.
  • Discard the outer leaves of the radicchio and escarole. Cut out the tough cores, and tear the leaves into bite-size pieces. Place in a mixing bowl. Season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with salad dressing. Lightly toss to coat. Serve on salad plates.
