This delicious mix of bitter, sweet, and savory flavors always reminds me of one of my favorite chefs, Yotam Ottolenghi, who would probably have put orange blossom water in this recipe (which would be beautiful). Radicchio contains inulin, a prebiotic, which also increases bile production and helps us utilize skin-loving fats. — Carla Oates, author of The Beauty Chef
