Ocado Cavolo Nero.
A classic in Italian cuisine, cavolo nero is a dark and delicious leafy green. Its name, which means black cabbage, comes from its long, slender leaves that are a deep, almost black-green colour. The leaves have a distinctive bumpy texture and an earthy, slightly sweet flavour that is more robust than spinach but milder than kale.
It can be simply sautéed with a little garlic and olive oil for a delicious side dish, or added to soups and stews to make them more hearty. Its leaves hold their shape well when cooked, making it perfect for slow-simmering dishes.
Cavalo nero is a fantastic addition to risottos where it adds a deep colour and flavour, or can be used as a wholesome addition to casseroles and pasta dishes. Its rich flavour also pairs wonderfully with roasted meats.
