    Rapini or broccoli rabe is a green cruciferous vegetable, with the leaves, buds, and stems all being edible; the buds somewhat resemble broccoli, but do not form a large head.
    Rapini is known for its slightly bitter taste, and is particularly associated with Mediterranean cuisine.
    Rapini may be sautéed[ or braised with olive oil and garlic, and sometimes chili pepper and anchovy. It may be used as an ingredient in soup, served with orecchiette, other pasta, or pan-fried sausage. Rapini is sometimes (but not always) blanched before being cooked further.
    Broccoli rabe is the common name for the vegetable rapini, a close relative of the turnip, which closely resembles broccoli and broccolini. Particularly dense in Vitamin A (one serving is nearly 20% of the daily value), the vegetable is commonly used in Italian, Italian-American, and other cuisine.
    In the United States, rapini is popular in Italian-American kitchens. It can be a component of pasta dishes, especially when accompanied by Italian sausage made with fennel.

    It was introduced to my country by Chinese. I always thought it was an Asian vegetable but now I learn it is from Italy and called Rabini .

    Looks great Rhonda. My family makes these often, though I have never had them with anchovies. This recipe will be for me and not for the nurses. They probably wouldn't like rapini lol

    Bella Rhonda! I harvest mine today from my organic garden and cooked the leaves and stems in water with onion and garlic first for 10 minutes, drained and added olive oil and garlic crush red pepper and sweet peppers no bitterness!!! Added and Sautéed together sweet Italian sausage. I added some lemon juice. Marinating right now over the blanched rabe flowers , sautéed Italian sweet sausages with garlic, olive oil, crushed red pepper and sweet red peppers . Tomorrow I will cook for 6 minutes. No anchovies. I don’t like them. Serve With some homemade fettuccine and Parmesan cheese! No red sauce. I can’t want!

    Your editing could be a bit better, you cut off half of the sentences sometimes.

    Dear Rhonda, as a child my dad use to make plain broccoli rabe' that was as bitter as could be
    and I loved it, the more bitter the better I like it, when he & mom passed I would buy from local
    Italian restaurants being disappointed every time, I think the oil and garlic they use dilutes the
    flavor, I recently found a pizza parlor in my neighborhood with an older Italian lady who is the
    cook for this restaurant and had her make me an order of plain rabe, When I picked up the order
    it had a slight aroma of the rabe' my dad made but when I tasted it, the flavor was very weak,
    could it be the rabe' itself that is the problem, or do you think they may be cooking it incorrectly,
    if you had someone in your family who just like plain strong tasting (bitter) rabe', how would you
    cook it ?

      My grandmother would say less time cooked (as in almost raw). When I want a very bitter rabe I pan flash it- This is a cooking style uses a heating element at a very high temperature for a very very short period of cooking time use a very small amount of salad oil at the bottom of the pan. I do not use olive oil as IMO i believe it removes some bitterness. Toward this end when I pan flas rabe I am cooking it only for a little over 60 seconds on high heat. Important to NOTE: Do NOT add any salt as it tends to remove bitterness IMO Hope this helps. Salute Rhonda
