Ingredients
- 2whole Treviso or Chioggia radicchio
- 2tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into ¼-inch cubes
- 2cups strong veal stock
- Kosher salt to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Trim stalk of each radicchio to ½ inch. Split radicchio in half lengthwise through the stalk.
- Step 2
Place radicchio cut-side up in a baking dish just large enough to hold the four pieces. Tuck butter between leaves of each half.
- Step 3
Sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper. Pour in stock to a depth of 1½ inches. Cover tightly with aluminum foil. Cook 20 minutes.
- Step 4
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.
- Step 5
Drain, reserving the stock for another use, and serve radicchio as a side dish.

I had some very large treviso and the butter was more than enough to slather the leaves with! Interesting, rich flavor but not sure I would make this again.
