Turnip Tops - 230g Jar - Cime di Rapa in Oil

Bring the bold, iconic flavors of the Italian South to your kitchen with Lifeitaly Turnip Tops (Cime di Rapa). A cornerstone of Puglian and Sicilian culinary heritage, these greens are harvested at the peak of their tenderness, capturing their signature slightly bitter and nutty profile. At Lifeitaly, we preserve our turnip tops in high-quality oil with a touch of garlic and chili to maintain their vibrant color and firm texture.

Often referred to as "Broccoli Rabe" in international gourmet circles, our Cime di Rapa are ready to use, offering an instant infusion of authentic Mediterranean character. Whether you are recreating the famous Orecchiette alle Cime di Rapa or looking for a sophisticated side dish for grilled meats, this 230g jar delivers the honest, rustic "Sapori della Terra" that Lifeitaly is known for.
