Warm Borlotti Bean and Radicchio Salad

This salad from the Veneto in Italy is a study in contrasts: warm, creamy, sweet-tasting beans against crisp, cool, lightly bitter radicchio and salty, crisp pancetta. Cannellini or other white kidney beans can be substituted for the borlotti beans. Serve the salad as an accompaniment to grilled tuna or roasted chicken.
