Rosso di Treviso Precoce

Grower: Chandler Briggs, Hayshaker Farm
Chefs: Lauren Garaventa and Rustle Biehn, The Ruby Brink
Bite: Radicchio Sausage

Precoce means “early” in Italian, and you can indeed think of Treviso Precoce as the faster younger sibling to Treviso Tardivo. Like Tardivo, Precoce has deep red leaves and a thick white mid-rib, although its leaves are much more regular in shape. Unlike Tardivo, Precoce does not need to be stored in darkness to develop its final form. Treviso Precoce produces dense American football-shaped heads right in the field. It’s among the least bitter of the radicchio, and after going through a few frosts, some might even describe the leaves as bittersweet.
