Preparation

Baking Directions:

For the dressing:In a blender, puree the pine nuts, lemon juice, honey, 1½ teaspoons salt and the crushed red pepper.

With the machine running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil a little at a time.

The dressing should be a thick, mayonnaise-like consistency.

Transfer the dressing to a bowl and stir in 2 tablespoons water.

Taste and season with additional salt, if needed.

To serve:In a large bowl, gently toss the endive, radicchio and arugula with 1/4 cup of the dressing and half of the Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Divide among serving plates and top with the remaining Parmigiano-Reggiano and the pine nuts.

Drizzle with the remaining vinaigrette and serve.
