The roots of this vegetable are deep in tradition

Leafy chard, known since ancient times, was cultivated and prized by the Greeks and Romans, who recognized its nutritional and healing properties. Pliny the Elder mentioned it in his writings as a common vegetable on the tables of the time. For centuries, it was one of the most common vegetables in peasant gardens throughout the peninsula, due to its hardiness and long harvest season. In peasant cuisine, it was a staple in soups, savory pies, and fillings, capable of satisfying the hunger on a shoestring. Each region developed its own traditional recipes, from Ligurian green pies to the sautéed side dishes of Central and Southern Italy. A humble and precious vegetable, the guardian of a long gastronomic memory.
