What it is

Radicchio is a leafy vegetable with a slightly bitter taste and a deep red or purplish color. It is a type of chicory, native to Europe, and is now grown in many parts of the world, including the United States. It is typically eaten raw in salads or cooked.

Why it's used

Radicchio is used as a fresh vegetable in salads, often mixed with milder greens to add color and a bitter contrast. It can also be grilled, roasted, or sautéed, where its bitterness mellows and it develops a sweeter flavor.

Health notes

Radicchio is a source of vitamins and minerals. The FDA has not established specific regulations for radicchio as a food additive, as it is a whole food. International bodies like the WHO/FAO Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) evaluate food ingredients but do not typically set limits for whole foods like radicchio. No significant health controversies are associated with typical consumption of radicchio.

Allergen info

Radicchio is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
