Radicchio and plum salad

Delight your taste buds with a refreshing Radicchio and Plum Salad bursting with vibrant flavors and a perfect balance of sweetness and tanginess. Perfect for a light and flavorful meal.

Ingredients:

• slices bacon
• small shallot, finely chopped
• tablespoons sherry vinegar
• tablespoons olive oil
• teaspoon Dijon mustard
• head of radicchio, leaves separated, larger leaves torn
• plums, cut into wedges
• cup Gaeta olives
• Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper

Instructions:

1. Fry bacon in a medium skillet over medium-low heat without oil, flipping occasionally, until it becomes crispy, for about 8 to 12 minutes. Then, place the bacon on paper towels to remove excess oil.
2. Lower the heat to a gentle simmer and sauté shallots in the same skillet, stirring occasionally until they turn translucent, which should take around 2 minutes. Next, incorporate vinegar, oil, mustard, and 1 tablespoon of water into the skillet. Whisk the ingredients together until you achieve a smooth mixture.
3. In a large bowl, mix radicchio, plums, and olives together. Pour the prepared dressing over the mixture; season with salt and pepper. Toss everything well to ensure the dressing coats all the ingredients.
4. Carefully transfer the salad to a serving platter, and then sprinkle the crumbled bacon on top of it.
