Woody's radicchio salad - The Globe and Mail Our friend Woody Wells drew inspiration for this salad from Judy Rodgers, author of the classic The Zuni Cafe Cookbook. Do not dress the salad until right before serving. For texture make sure the breadcrumbs are coarse, not finely processed. Preparation time: 15 minutes Ready time: 20 minutes This salad, enticing though it is, will be kind to no wine. Pungent mustard, sharp vinegar, egg, raw onion - that's quite the arsenal. Best to go with a very crisp, light Mediterranean white. -Beppi Crosariol Garnish: 2 tsp olive oil 1/2 cup fresh breadcrumbs 3 Belgian endives, shredded 1 head radicchio, shredded (about 6 cups) 11/4 cups chopped red onion 1 egg, hard-boiled Vinaigrette: 1 tsp Dijon mustard 4 anchovies, chopped 1 tsp minced garlic 1 tbsp white wine vinegar 1/4 cup olive oil Heat 2 tsp olive oil in a small frying pan over medium heat.
