Grilled Radicchio Salad

|An Italian relative of chicory radicchio has a distinctive red and white leaves. The exact nature of its colouring depends upon how much light it has been exposed to when growing - if none at all the contrast between the white ribs and the deep red leaves will be very strong. If it has seen some light the white and red will be softened with patches of green or copper. Shaped like a small cabbage it's mainly used in salads and its bitter flavour contrasts well with milder leaves such as rocket. The leaves themselves are tender but the heads are sturdy enough to be cut and grilled.||2 heads of raddicio chopped and quartered so each stem is holding them together½ cup olive oil plus some to coat the raddicio¼ cup balsamic vinegar1 teaspoon salt3 garlic cloves chopped½ teaspoon mustardpercornio or parmesan cheesesalt and pepper|Make the dressing.
