Number Of Ingredients 12

6 ounces Parmesan, finely grated, divided
2 tablespoons honey
1/2 small shallot, finely chopped
1/3 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Kosher salt

Categories     side-dish

Time 20m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons green olives, pitted and roughly chopped
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest plus 2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 medium head radicchio, leaves separated and torn
1 cup arugula
2 blood oranges, peeled and thinly sliced

Steps:

  • For the Parmesan crisps: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place 6 tablespoon-size mounds of cheese on the parchment a few inches from one another; they will spread as they begin to melt. Bake until the cheese has completely melted, about 5 minutes. Carefully transfer the crisps to a baking rack to cool completely before assembling the salad.
  • For the green olive dressing: Combine the olive oil, olives, lemon zest and juice, mustard, salt and pepper in a mason jar, twist the lid on tight and shake until emulsified.
  • For the salad: On a large platter, layer the radicchio leaves with the arugula. Tuck in the citrus pieces. Give the dressing one more good shake and drizzle it over the salad. Garnish with the Parmesan crisps and serve.

CRISPY PARMESAN EGGS WITH RADICCHIO AND PEA SALAD



Crispy Parmesan Eggs With Radicchio and Pea Salad image

The true stars of this main course salad are the Parmesan fried eggs, which have lacy, golden edges that are almost fricolike in their crunch. As the runny yolks leak onto the radicchio and vegetables, they mix with the lemony dressing, making the whole salad creamy and rich. It's best to shred the Parmesan yourself, using the largest holes on your grater; the preground stuff is usually too fine. Then be sure to use a nonstick skillet or well-seasoned cast-iron pan to fry the eggs; otherwise, they are liable to glue themselves onto a regular pan. And if you aren't an anchovy fan but still want to add a saline bite, a tablespoon of drained capers also works well.

Time 40m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Fine sea salt
1 1/2 cups sugar snap peas, trimmed
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons coarsely grated (not ground) Parmesan
4 eggs
Black pepper
1 medium head radicchio, cored and torn into bite-size pieces (about 6 cups)
1/4 cup sliced pitted black olives, such as Kalamata
1/2 cup halved cherry or grape tomatoes
1 cup sliced cucumber, preferably Persian or mini
8 oil-packed anchovy fillets (optional)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, plus more to taste
1 small garlic clove, finely grated or mashed to a paste
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus more to taste
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for serving
Large pinch of red-pepper flakes
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Fill a bowl with water and ice. Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Add peas and blanch for 1 minute. Drain the peas well and add to ice water to cool for a minute or two. Drain, pat dry, and halve the peas.
  • Make the dressing: Combine lemon juice, garlic, salt, black pepper and red-pepper flakes in small mixing bowl. Whisk in olive oil, then taste and add more lemon juice or salt, or both, if needed. Set aside.
  • Cook the eggs: Brush a thin layer of olive oil over the bottom of a 10-inch nonstick or well-seasoned cast-iron skillet and place over medium heat. Sprinkle 1/2 cup Parmesan in an even layer covering the bottom of the pan. Cook for 2 minutes until cheese begins to melt.
  • Crack eggs onto cheese, then cover pan and cook until eggs are starting to set but are not cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Uncover and turn heat to medium-high to finish cooking eggs for another 1 to 2 minutes, until edges are crisp and golden brown. Make sure the cheese doesn't get too brown; if it goes past light golden, turn down heat.
  • Season eggs with salt and pepper to taste. While eggs are cooking, in a large mixing bowl, toss remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan, snap peas, radicchio, olives, cherry tomatoes and cucumber with the dressing. Taste and add salt or lemon juice, if needed. To serve, spread radicchio salad on large serving platter and place eggs on top. Grind on more pepper and garnish with anchovy fillets if you'd like.

Tips:

  • Choose the right radicchio: Look for heads that are firm and have deep red leaves. Avoid any heads that are wilted or have brown spots.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will help you get clean, even slices of radicchio and apple.
  • Don't overdress the salad: A light vinaigrette dressing is all you need to enhance the flavors of the radicchio, apple, and Parmesan cheese.
  • Make the Parmesan crisps ahead of time: The Parmesan crisps can be made up to 2 days in advance. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature.
  • Serve the salad immediately: The radicchio and apple salad is best served immediately after it is made. The Parmesan crisps will start to soften if they sit for too long.

Conclusion:

This radicchio and apple salad with Parmesan crisps is a delicious and easy-to-make salad that is perfect for any occasion. The radicchio and apple provide a nice crunch, while the Parmesan cheese adds a salty and savory flavor. The vinaigrette dressing is light and tangy, and it helps to bring all of the flavors together. The Parmesan crisps are a fun and unexpected addition that adds a touch of elegance to the salad. Whether you are serving it as a side dish or a main course, this salad is sure to please everyone at your table.
