Advise
- Wash the radicchio well : in addition to obviously eliminating the dirt, you will also remove the excess bitterness, giving the radicchio a more delicate flavor.
- Be careful with the water : when stirring in the pan, always add a little water at a time to avoid having to overcook the pasta to dry up the excess water.
