The "hot" in this dressing is in reference to temperature, not flavor, as it softens the tougher-leaved greens like radicchio.
Directions: =========== Sprinkle a pinch of salt in a wooden salad bowl and rub the garlic clove all over to season the bowl. Add the salad greens. Heat oil, vinegars and shallots in a small saucepan, stirring occasionally. Pour hot dressing over greens and toss gently. Sprinkle salad with basil and toss again. Serve immediately.
