Artichokes In Oil In Slices

Our Carciofi Sott’Olio a Spicchi come from meticulous attention to quality and tradition. Every stage of processing is taken care of down to the smallest detail: from the careful selection of fresh artichokes to the artisanal preparation. The artichokes are defoliated and cut by hand by our staff, preserving their natural crispness intact. Processing follows a process that enhances the organoleptic characteristics of the product. The use of water, vinegar and lemon juice allows the color and texture to remain unaltered. Soaking in our own extra virgin olive oil, enriched with a delicate mint leaf, gives a unique flavor that immediately captures the senses.
Their versatility makes them perfect for multiple culinary uses, from appetizers to side dishes. In fact, artichokes are naturally rich in beneficial properties. They contain antioxidants, vitamins and minerals that support the body’s well-being. Their low calorie content therefore makes them suitable for controlled diets as well.

The Italian gastronomic tradition finds an authentic expression in these artichokes. Indeed, they have been a staple of poor cuisine for centuries, versatile and nutritious. Carciofi Sott’Olio have their roots in the rich Mediterranean culinary tradition, a method of preservation handed down for generations. Originating in Italian regions with favorable climates for growing artichokes, such as Apulia and Sicily, this preparation originated as a solution to preserve the crop throughout the year. The technique of preserving in oil allowed farming families to enjoy this delicious vegetable even in the winter months, when fresh production was reduced. Each territory has developed its own variant, handing down jealously guarded recipes that today represent a unique gastronomic heritage, an expression of culture, creativity and folk wisdom.
