Frequently Asked Questions:
What is giardiniera?
Giardiniera is a colorful antipasto featuring a mix of crisp vegetables that are pickled in a briny, vinegary marinade. Traditionally, the vegetables included are cauliflower, carrots, celery, red bell pepper, pepperoncini peppers and sometimes green olives. This pickled pepper and veggie medley originated as a way to preserve a big harvest of vegetables, but is now used as a flavorful feature on charcuterie boards, cheese plates, antipasto spreads and more. It can also be used to top salads, pasta salads, grain bowls, sandwiches, hummus dips and more.
Along with the Italian giardiniera, there is another version of giardiniera known as Chicago-style giardiniera. This is a medley of chopped pickled veggies: typically cauliflower, carrots, celery, sweet bell peppers and spicy sport peppers or chili peppers. Chicago-style giardiniera is marinated in olive oil and resembles a colorful relish and is used as such. It’s a classic condiment for Chicago sandwiches (such as the Italian beef sandwich) and hot dogs.
