For other slightly bitter salad greens, see also Arugula, Endive & Lettuce
THE BASICS
[rah-DEE-kee-oh] Radicchio is a red-leafed Italian chicory. It is most often used as a salad green, with tender but firm leaves with a bitter flavor. The radicchio di Verona has burgundy-red leaves with white ribs in a small, loose head. The leaves of radicchio di Treviso are narrow and pointed and form tighter, more tapered heads with white to pink to dark red ribs.

THE BASICS
Radishes are the roots of plants in the mustard family. Their skins vary in color (from white to red to purple to black with many shades in between) and shape (round, oval or elongated) and and size (from half-inch globes to giants like daikon).

Rhubarb
THE BASICS
[ROO-bahrb] The thick, celerylike stalks of this buckwheat-family member can reach up to 2 feet long. The leaves contain oxalic acid, can therefore be toxic and thus should not be eaten. Though rhubarb is generally eaten as a fruit, it's botanically a vegetable.
