About Rappini
Rappini, also known as broccoli rabe or rapini, is a leafy green vegetable with slender stalks and tiny florets. Despite its resemblance to broccoli, it belongs to the turnip family and has a slightly bitter, nutty flavor. Originating in the Mediterranean, it's a staple in Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese cuisines, often sautéed with olive oil and garlic or added to pasta and soups. Rappini is packed with nutrients, including vitamins A, C, and K, as well as folate, calcium, and iron, making it excellent for supporting bone health and immunity. It's also rich in antioxidants and fiber, aiding digestion and combating inflammation. However, its bitterness may not appeal to everyone, and those on blood-thinner medications should monitor their intake due to its vitamin K content. Low in calories and carbs, rappini is a nutritious choice for a balanced diet.
