What a wonderful dressing! I love the use of the bitter greens, they provide such a beautiful foil for the dressing and are a nice change of pace from your standard romaine or spinach salad. Tip: if you can't find the greens in bulk at your supermarket, just buy a bag of pre-mixed greens that include at least one of the greens. I used a "Santa Barbara blend" that had both radicchio and escarole in it, along with some other lettuces, and it was fantastic.

I substituted Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, and just used romaine lettuce. Very tasty dressing and I will be using again. Next time I will try the recipe as written. I'm sure it will be even better. Husband loved it.
