About Cippolini Red

These distinctive flattened, disc-shaped bulbs typically grow 1-3 inches in diameter, weighing 4-6 ounces. They feature pale, translucent purple flesh encased in thin, copper-colored papery skin, maturing in 120-150 days. Prized for their sweet, deep flavor, they offer a pungent, nutty aroma when raw and caramelize to sublime sweetness when roasted, making them excellent for gourmet dishes, pickling, or pairing with bold cheeses. When properly cured and stored in a cool place, bulbs can maintain their quality for 3-5 months.
