About Broccoli raab, raw
Rapini (Brassica rapa), sold in the United States as broccoli rabe or broccoli raab, is a leafy green vegetable with slender stalks, jagged leaves, and small broccoli-like buds, all of which are edible. Despite its name and looks, it is more closely related to the turnip than to broccoli, and it is prized for a bold, pleasantly bitter, slightly nutty flavor that is a hallmark of Italian cooking. Rapini is low in calories and rich in vitamins A, C, and K, along with folate and fiber.
It is classically sauteed with garlic, olive oil, and a pinch of chili, then paired with sausage and orecchiette pasta or piled onto crusty bread. Blanching it briefly before cooking tames some of the bitterness. Choose crisp, bright green bunches with tight buds and no yellowing, and store rapini wrapped in the refrigerator, using it within a couple of days.
