Barbara Spencer of Windrose Farms has a variety of beautiful radicchio at her stand. They are more flower-shaped than in a tight head. She recommends soaking the head of radicchio in cold water for 20 minutes before spin-drying and using. Pictures of Barbara's stand at the Wednesday Santa Monica Farmers Market are here.
