Mix the flours together. Dissolve the yeast in 2/3 cup water, then mix it with the beaten eggs; gradually pour this liquid into the flour, stirring well to mix everything. This is your batter. Season with salt and pepper and let the batter rest in the refrigerator for about an hour, covered.
Cut the cheese into 30 cubes of about 1 inch each, then coat them in batter using two spoons to help you and place them in very hot oil one at a time. Fry them for 2-3 minutes, until they become golden.
Peel the apple, cut it into small pieces and toss them a pan with a pat of butter for 2 minutes, then add the peeled and chopped radicchio and let the flavors mix with the heat off, adding a pinch of salt. Serve the cheese fritters piping hot, giving each guest three along with the apple and radicchio.
