A really simple pasta dish with crunchy bitter radicchio, that’s balanced by the rich, earthy taste of roasted hazelnuts and luscious, fresh cream. Some chopped roasted nuts would be a nice addition sprinkled on top. Serve with some garlic bread for a complete meal.
Reginette with Radicchio and Hazelnut Cream Sauce
Inspire by Robyn Cooks and All Recipes- 100 g Reginette
- 1 Radicchio, rinsed and sliced
- 40 g Ground hazelnuts, toasted
- 30 g Butter
- 120 ml Low-fat cream
- 1 tsp Brandy
- Salt and freshly mulled black pepper
- Cook the reginette in in a large saucepan of rapidly boiling salted water until al dente, about 9 minutes.
- In the meantime, toast the ground hazelnut in a small skillet over medium-high heat for a couple of minutes, stirring constantly. Lower heat, then add the butter, stir until melted, then add the cream and brandy. Stir to combine, and cook until thickened, 5 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
- To serve, pile some radicchio into the bottom of a rimmed soup bowl, then top with reginette. Spoon the sauce over the top. Serve immediately.

That's one pretty dish - not a combination I normally think of!
Angie, this honestly looks like the best pasta dish I have ever seen. I adore hazelnuts and radicchio and that pasta looks scrumptious!
That looks and sounds absolutely fantastic! A refined dish.
Cheers,

I've never heard of Reginette before. What a delicious meal!
Looks delicious! Red radicchio is one of my favorite lettuces.
This will stay on my radar until I make it - a perfect meatless meal - with color, crunch, bitter and sweet! Who could ask for more?
Oh my! I love that hazelnut sauce! totally bookmarking it for the weekend!
Looks great Angie! The addition of brandy sounds intriguing, I'll have to make that version soon!
I had to go look up reginette. Learning something everyday I am! Peter and I agree that this sounds wonderful. We are huge fans of radicchio and treviso.
I had to look up reginette too. I'm happy to say that our store carries it and I've even used it, not knowing what it was called. Wonderful recipe with the hazelnuts and radicchio!
A really pretty dish to serve now.. lovely~
Hazelnut cream sauce sounds really great! I need to try to use different kind of nuts!
Oh, it's so pretty...I love the contrast in colors and textures in this dish, as well. And the flavors. YUM!
This looks delicious, I want the hazelnut cream sauce! Great photos!
What a novel recipe. I quite like the flavor combinations going on. The radicchio adds such a depth of color, texture and flavor. Great dish!
This looks terrific! Honey Bunny's family makes something like this but they use regular pasta and white cabbage. It's been passed down for so long I think it's been changed until it's nearly unrecognizable. I wonder if the original looked more like this.....
Radicchio has a great crunch, and it also adds nice color. That red really grabs your eye.
You do such a great job creating flavorful recipes with such amazing visual impact. Very nice dish!
I usually have white cream sauce or tomato sauce on pasta and spaghetti. This sound interesting Hazelnut cream sauce on pasta.
What a beautiful dish this is and the hazelnut cream sauce sounds delicious!
Yes, it looks so colourful. The flavours are made for each other
I had to look up reginette as I'd never heard of it before. Will check to see if my market carries it next time I go. This looks marvelous...I love the colors and with the brandy and hazelnuts, delicious!
Love the idea of the crunch with the pasta. A very pleasing combination in one's mouth.

This looks perfect, rich and delicious. Creamy hazelnut sauce - wow!
I love the way you present that pasta ;) Not only the radicchio adds crunchiness - it also adds beautiful color to the dish .
I love hazenuts Angie. And what an unusual cut of pasta that is. Very colourful dish.
This looks beautiful and super delicious. Love the flavors.
Different from the usual pasta, your dish looks delicious! Great flavors.
That does look absolutely divinely delicious. (I could come up with more superlatives.) Colorful, mixture of taste and texture. Your genius at work again.
What a fun pasta shape! I don't think I've ever seen that before. radicchio is such a great "green" but it really is SO bitter! Love that the cream sauce cuts that.
Mmmmm, that looks amazing! Hazelnuts are infinitely scrummy. Love your photography. ☺
A beautiful dish with delicious hazelnut cream sauce. Looks simple yet full of flavours.

I tried hazelnuts in savoury dishes, and I know it's delicious. Thanks for sharing, Angie!
amazing recipe. I totally love nuts pestos and this with hazelnuts is very original. you even manage to make a pasta dish look nice (I can't!!). brava.
I guess hazelnut is a good background for a rich sauce since they don't have an overpowering taste. I love them, definitely would be a nice elegant pasta dish for New Year dinner.
Simple yet delicious. I wish we had this for dinner (but I almost always think this when I come here to visit ;-) Thank you for sharing your delicous meal and words my friend. No better way to end my weekend. I hope you have a week full of family and feasting. Blessings from Austin!
This is new to me using hazelnut sauce in pasta. Looks very pretty and delicious!
Hi Angie, I have not heard of radicchio before. And recently, I came across a veggie called finocchio. I wonder if these two are related or the same. So interesting! You are such a regular and wonderful cook. And I think you can even consider opening a cafe!
Wonderful platter,tempting and delicious.
Loving the gorgeous contrast of radicchio against the reginette - the hazelnut cream sauce sounds positively divine.
hi angie, very tempting sauce ingredients.. hazelnuts greatly welcomed, simply love to try this , bookmarked with thanks
Great recipe ! I made it for my wife! It`s delicious!!! Thanks for sharing!
That hazelnut cream sauce sound to die for. Your powers of projection are so powerful, I can smell the roasted hazelnuts.
Delicious!!! Thank you for the recipe! Hazelnut sauce ....that must me wonderful!
Angie-I haven't made pasta with radicchio, in such a long time...and when I did make it, everyone raved about it...mine was just with simple extra virgin olive oil, and lemon, but yours is way over the top, with the delicious cream sauce, which I must try!
Lovely photos, and great recipe...as always:DDD
xoxo
Looks so delicious! I never tried raddichio, the cream sauce sounds divine. Thanks Angie!
I love everything about this dish, particularly the hazelnut cream sauce. This sounds divine, Angie. Making me very hungry!
I love radicchio and am very interested to find a creative recipe using it in such a delicious hot dish. I will be bookmarking this one Angie!
That cream sauce sounds perfectly divine! Beautiful dish :)
A hazelnut cream sauce just sounds so good!
Dear Angie, I would just LOVE this!! It has my favorites in it. Radicchio and hazelnuts. It just looks delicious.
I want to wish you a very Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving. Your friend, Catherine xo
Like Barbara, I haven't seen that style pasta before--I'll have to look for Reginette at the global market. Love the pairing of hazelnuts with radicchio. A few crumbles of gorgonzola cheese would be delicious sprinkled over this, too. Thanks, Angie, for all that you share here!
I love the sound of hazelnut cream!! This looks really delicious and pretty- I might have to try this out some time!
Wow, looks wonderful! Wish that plate is on my table!
So colorful!! I love the play of textures here - and really, you had me at hazelnut cream. *slurp*
I love radicchio...however, admittedly would not have thought of serving it with pasta. The hazelnut touch is perfect Angie.
Flavourful wishes,
Claudia
Omg the hazelnut cream looks wonderful.
Gosh, super love the cream sauce. It's a must try recipe. Thanks again for another beautiful recipe, dear.
Kristy
Fantastic color in this pasta dish. The radicchio with it's slightly bitter taste would be fantastic with a creamy pasta.
