How to use it

Practical tips

Unopened: keeps for 36 months in a cool place. Once the jar is opened, refrigerate and use within 7 days, making sure the product always stays covered in oil.

In the fridge the oil may turn cloudy: this is normal — just bring the jar back to room temperature to restore its clarity.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Come si usano in cucina?
Mixed antipasti, gourmet sandwiches with cured meats and cheeses, a side for grilled or roasted meats, a partner for aged cheeses, a topping for pizza and focaccia, or a sweet-and-sour onion risotto.
Perché solo 57 kcal/100 g?
Raw onions have around 30-40 kcal/100 g. With 34% extra virgin olive oil the value rises to 57 kcal/100 g — well below the baby artichokes (333) or eggplant (278), which absorb more oil.
Cosa sono le cipolle Borettane?
A variety of onion native to Boretto (Reggio Emilia): flat in shape, small to medium in size, with a thin straw-colored skin, natural sweetness and a lingering sweet-and-sour note — particularly suited to blanching in water and vinegar.
Il contenuto di sale è alto?
Yes, 2.2 g/100 g: a consequence of the vinegar-and-salt process typical of sweet-and-sour preserves. If you follow a low-sodium diet, rinse the onions before eating.
