Three different lettuces—radicchio, arugula, and Belgian endive—team up in this salad with a homemade balsamic and caper vinaigrette. Radicchio, with its deep reddish-purple leaves, has a bitter flavor; arugula has a peppery bite; and pale-yellow Belgian endive has a mildly bitter flavor. The combination yields a multi-faceted mix of flavors. When choosing your lettuces, make sure to choose crisp options with no signs of wilted leaves. Capers, a type of pickled flower bud, add a nice briny element to the salad. Top each serving with a little shaved Parmesan or creamy crumbled goat cheese for a little extra oomph.
