Red Verona radicchio is a striking Italian chicory known for its deep burgundy leaves and compact, round shape. It has a pleasantly bitter flavor that mellows when grilled, roasted, or braised, making it a favorite in both raw and cooked dishes. This cool-season crop thrives in fall and winter, developing its best color and taste after exposure to light frost. Rich in antioxidants and nutrients, red Verona radicchio adds both beauty and health benefits to meals. Its bold appearance and distinctive taste make it a standout ingredient in salads, risottos, and hearty vegetable platters.
