Italian Puntarelle alla Crudaiola | Puntarelle Chicory Sprouts Imported from Puglia | Premium Quality, All Natural Ingredients, No Preservatives Added | 18.3oz (520g) (Pack of 2)
About this item
The Puntarelle are the most tender sprouts of the Catalonian chicory, a typical salad grown in Lazio and Puglia.
Specifically, I Contadini Puntarelle are from Galatina, in the Salento area of Puglia, where they are transplanted in October and then harvested between January and February.
The process starts with stripping the leaves and then manually cut the crisp, tender sprouts, known as "scattuni" in the local dialect, which are then gently cured for a few days.
After the maturation, the sprouts are then placed in oil without adding any aroma or spices.
This long and meticulous process allows to preserve all the freshness and authentic taste of this specialty.
Preserved raw, Puntarelle retain all their nutritional properties and their fragrance.
Excellent with the traditional pucce bread as well as on frise bread and croutons, Puntarelle are exceptional to accompany meat and fish main courses such as battered anchovies, swordfish carpaccio and beef tartare.
