Chicory 'Rossa di Treviso' (Cichorium intybus 'Rossa di Treviso') is a traditional Italian heirloom variety known for its striking deep red leaves with white veins and crisp texture. Resembling a slender romaine lettuce, it has a mildly bitter flavor that mellows with cool weather. Best grown in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil, it matures in late summer to autumn. Ideal for salads, grilling, or braising, ‘Rossa di Treviso’ adds vibrant color and unique flavor to seasonal dishes.
I simply love our family veg boxes from GWG. It's reassuring to know that their own grown produce is nurtured from seeds that are soil association approved and that they use only organic methods of growing.
We have been customers for several years, and receive some of the most delicious veg ever. There is a choice between buying a box selected by GWG, which works out cheaper, or choosing from a list of items. Thoroughly recommended.
Your first box is only a few clicks away. Get a box of fresh, local food in your kitchen soon, packed with care and supporting your local farmers and artisan producers.
