Rapini is a green cruciferous vegetable. The edible parts are the leaves, buds, and stems. The buds somewhat resemble broccoli, but do not form a large head. It is known for its slightly bitter taste, and it is particularly associated with Apulian cuisines and particular dishes like “orecchiette alle cime di rapa”.
