Radicchio Stone Fruit Salad

Radicchio Stone Fruit Salad

By Alison Carroll

Walnuts can get bitter if toasted too long, so remove them from the oven as soon as they turn golden brown.

Ingredients

8 servings

  • ½ cup walnuts
  • 2 small heads of radicchio, leaves separated
  • 4 ripe peaches or nectarines, sliced, or 8 apricots, quartered
  • ½ cup parsley leaves with tender stems, divided
  • 3 scallions, thinly sliced, divided
  • ⅓ cup olive oil
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
  • ½ cup crumbled sheep’s-milk cheese or chèvre

Recipe

  1. Preheat oven to 325°. Toast walnuts on a rimmed baking sheet, tossing once, until golden brown, 7–10 minutes. Let cool, then chop.
  2. Combine radicchio, peaches, parsley, half of scallions, and walnuts in a large bowl. Drizzle in oil and lemon juice and toss to coat; season with salt and pepper.
  3. Add cheese and remaining scallions, parsley, and walnuts to salad and gently toss again to combine.
Olive Oil
Olive Oil
Wonder Valley Olive Oil is a cook's best friend. This beautiful bottle of California extra virgin olive oil has a smooth, verdant flavor and elevates everyday cooking and eating. Well-suited to all kinds of cooking demands, but just as delicious simply mopped up by a crusty loaf of bread. This timeless superfood delivers a delicious dose of polyphenols, the powerful antioxidant associated with longevity of life. Our 2023 harvest oil was hand-picked from the sunny groves in Northern California's Lake County and pressed within hours of harvest by a master miller.

With the addition of the mochi rice, this becomes an okowa, a special occasion rice dish. There are many versions of okowa [which are] thought to bring good luck on New Year’s Day and for weddings and other happy celebrations. I think the start of bamboo season is cause enough for celebration and reason enough to make this special dish.

Meyer Lemon Risotto

This hearty, lemon-brightened risotto is a welcome meal for cold days. While it’s not traditional, I like to add a bit of quinoa and walnuts to the mix for a bit of a nutritional boost. Pictured here with simply- grilled mushrooms and chives. The mushrooms were tossed with a splash of olive oil and smashed under a cast iron skillet on a hot grill pan until golden.
