Product Description
"Cima di rapa 90," often called Novantina, is a specific cultivar of cime di rapa (broccoli raab) that takes approximately 90 days from sowing to harvest. This heritage variety produces tender, sprouting florets and is a key ingredient in the famous Puglian pasta dish, orecchiette con cime di rapa.
- Sowing: Seeds can be sown in spring and summer, with a long harvesting window into early winter.
- Harvesting: The harvest consists of tender, broccoli-like florets.
- Growing conditions: Like other cime di rapa, it requires consistent moisture to prevent bolting (going to seed prematurely).
