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
  1. Cook the reginette in in a large saucepan of rapidly boiling salted water until al dente, about 9 minutes.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.

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!

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.

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.

Ilke 21/11/11 02:26

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.

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!

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

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!

Fantastic color in this pasta dish. The radicchio with it's slightly bitter taste would be fantastic with a creamy pasta.
