Grilled Nectarines and Burrata Cheese Salad
Easy
Serves 4
An Italian mixed green salad is not likely to include iceberg lettuce, known in Italy as crocantine or Braziliana. Rather the salad bowl is filled with a delightful mixture of bitter greens including chicory, escarole, dandelion greens, and crunchy radicchio and is anything but boring.
It is a work of edible art, a refreshing wake-up call for the palate, and a reminder that Italians know how to enjoy the bitter with the sweet.

Love Italian food. One of my great grandmothers was born in Italy and as I live in South of France, our cooking often looks like the Italian one.
This mix of greens is really clever and suits the gourmet I am!

I cook for a very upscale restaurant and we sell a misticanza a lot. We make it slightly different with more vegetables/fruit but the concept of this salad is one of variation. Generally ir is a small set of greens with something else like squash or sauteed mushrooms
