To make the vinaigrette, mix together the balsamic vinegar and concentrate. With the back of a knife or a spoon, rub the minced garlic into the salt on a cutting board. Scrape the garlic from the board and place in a bowl.
Whisk in the vinegar, then whisk in the olive oil. Season with pepper to taste. The vinaigrette can be refrigerated for up to 1 week. Before using, let the vinaigrette come to room temperature and re-whisk to emulsify.
To make the salad, place the radicchio and arugula in a large mixing bowl and the fennel and radishes. Season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper and drizzle with about 1/4 cup of the dressing (you will have leftover dressing). Gently toss the salad, mixing well to ensure that the arugula is evenly seasoned and serve.
