Rapini

About
Also known as broccoli rabe or rabe, this green resembles thin broccoli stalks with small clusters of buds; the leaves are soft, with sawtooth edges. Rapini has an assertive, somewhat bitter taste that requires cooking to mellow it. Like most other members of the brassica family (which includes broccoli and bok choy), broccoli rabe is a good source of vitamin C and supplies beta-carotene as well.
