Broccoli Rabe

6/3/2014

 
Picture

In Season
Broccoli Rabe is a cool weather crop, it grows best in the early spring and late fall. 

Storage Tips
(7 days)
Place greens in a plastic bag and refrigerate.

Greens will hold their flavor for up to a week.

Culinary Tips
Remove greens from the larger stems and chop.

Chop stems, some people like to pound the stems to make them more tender

2-3 inch pieces take about 5 minutes to steam

Sauté chopped garlic in olive oil for a few minutes and then add the chopped stems and continue to sauté for a few more minutes. Then add the chopped greens and a few tablespoons of water and cover. Cook for 3-5 minutes until greens turn dark green and tender but not mushy.

Mixed steamed or braised broccoli rabe with pasta and serve with grated parmesan cheese

The bitter, earthy flavor of rabe pairs perfectly with creamy, salty cheeses
