Rapini (broccoli rabe or raab) (/rɑːb/) is a green cruciferous vegetable, with the leaves, buds, and stems all being edible; the buds somewhat resemble broccoli. Rapini is known for its bitter taste, and is particularly associated with Mediterranean cuisine. It is a particularly rich dietary source of vitamin K.

Classification

[edit]

Native to Europe, the plant is a member of the tribe Brassiceae of the Brassicaceae (mustard family).[3] Rapini is classified scientifically as Brassica rapa var. ruvo,[3] or Brassica rapa subsp. sylvestris var. esculenta.[4][5][6] It is also known as broccoletti, broccoli raab, broccoli rabe, spring raab, and ruvo kale.[3] Turnip and bok choy are different varieties (or subspecies) of this species.

Description

[edit]

Rapini has many spiked leaves that surround clusters of green buds that resemble small heads of broccoli. Small, edible yellow flowers may be blooming among the buds.[7]

Culinary use

[edit]
Lacón con grelos, a typical Galician dish: pork shoulder ham with rapini, along with steamed potatoes and a sausage

The flavor of rapini has been described as nutty, bitter, and pungent,[7] as well as almond-flavored.[8] Rapini needs little more than a trim at the base. The entire stalk is edible when young, but the base becomes more fibrous as the season advances.[9]

Rapini is widely used in the cuisine of Rome as well as Southern Italy,[8] particularly in the regions of Sicily,[10] Calabria,[11] Campania,[12] Apulia,[12][13] In Italian, rapini is called cime di rapa or broccoletti di rapa;[12] in Naples, the green is often called friarielli.[14] Within Portuguese cuisine, grelos de nabo are similar in taste and texture to broccoli rabe.[15] Rapini is also popular in the Galicia region of northwestern Spain; a rapini festival (Feira do grelo) is held in the Galician town of As Pontes every February.[16]

Rapini may be sautéed[12][17] or braised with olive oil and garlic,[8] and sometimes chili pepper and anchovy.[12][13] It may be used as an ingredient in soup,[8] served with orecchiette,[8][13] other pasta,[10] or pan-fried sausage.[11] Rapini is sometimes (but not always) blanched before being cooked further.[12]

In the United States, rapini is popular in Italian American kitchens; the D'Arrigo Brothers popularized the ingredient in the United States and gave it the name broccoli rabe.[8] Broccoli rabe is a component of some hoagies and submarine sandwiches; in Philadelphia, a popular sandwich is Italian-style roast pork with locally-made sharp provolone cheese, broccoli rabe, and peppers.[18] Rapini can also be a component of pasta dishes, especially when accompanied by Italian sausage.[19]

Nutrition

[edit]

Raw rapini is 93% water, 3% each of protein and carbohydrates, and contains negligble fat (table). In a reference amount of 100 g (3.5 oz), raw rapini supplies 22 calories of food energy, and is a rich source (20% or more of the Daily Value, DV) of vitamin K (187% DV), vitamin C (22% DV), and folate (21% DV) (table). Vitamin A, vitamin E, and several B vitamins, along with the dietary minerals, iron and manganese, are in moderate amounts (10-19% DV) (table).
