Add a burst of color to any dish with the convenience of this tasty giardiniera! Each jar is packed full of wholesome flavor and authentic taste. This giardiniera features a combination of mild cauliflower, carrots, celery, and red pepper strips. Similar to "chow chow," this Italian-style mix of vegetables is packed and preserved in vinegar to maintain freshness and flavor. Giardiniera is also called "sotto aceti," meaning "under vinegar," which is a common term for pickled foods in Italian. Whichever way this flavorful blend is used, it's sure to make a welcome addition to your sandwich shop, Italian restaurant, or pizza shop!
Giardiniera is commonly served with antipasto, salads, and pasta dishes. In Chicago, it is used to make Italian beef sandwiches with slowly roasted lean beef which is then soaked in juice, layered on Italian bread loaves, and topped with giardiniera. This healthy vegetable mixture is also great for tossing in pasta salads and sprinkling on vegetable pizzas. The combination of cauliflower, carrots, celery, and red pepper strips are sure to please all of your patrons who are looking for a light and nourishing side dish.

My go to snack, just can't get enough of this product. Buying 4 gallons ar a time, easy to order, and the shipping is very fast.

Wasn't horrible but not my particular favorite. Rough vinegar taste and the color of the veggies blanched out quickly. I would highly recommend opening and using the entire jar immediately because it does not appear to hold up for more than a week. Win some lose some.

Say hello to perfect bloody marys! We use both the giardiniera pickle juice to make our house made bloody mary mix, and also use the pickled vegetables themselves to skewer for garnish. It makes our bloody marys look and taste great. We also use the pickled vegetables cut up for pickle pizza bagels. Great price point. Great product. Highly recommend!

This mix is very bland and vinegary. No spices or any kind of flavor added. Just vinegar and salt. I had to add pickling spices, garlic and onions to make it taste good. Two weeks later it was good. I don't recommend it unless you plan on adding herbs and spices anyway and waiting a couple weeks. I DID contact customer service and there was no resolution. I am stuck with them. You were warned.

The Giardiniera is a tasty moderately spicy mix of cauliflower, carrots, celery, red pepper and a mildly spicy pepper in vinegar. I love to add it to my everyday salads, to top my pizza’s and my favorite is to add it to scramble eggs or quiches.

If you like a little hot spice with your veggies, this medley is for you. Use it as an appetizer or add to soups. I like to add it to salads to give them some zing!

This giardiniera mix tastes great and is a great value for money. I just wish that the cauliflower would be cut up a little smaller, but otherwise will definitely be buying more again

What a great price for such a large sized jar! Not my favorite giardiniera. But if you're a diehard fan of the stuff, it's worth a try.

Good flavor and nice color but a little heavy on cauliflower. Took awhile to get since the first was broken in transit. Would buy again though.

This item is much better then the Italian vendor.The cauliflower is crispier.I wish they had this item with the free shipping.I would purchase this again.
Giardiniera salad is always on the menu. There is a light hint of mild pepper, in this salad mix. We have saved time and money by stocking this mix in the kitchen.

These gallon jars of Gabardine are nice and consistent way to add a pickled vegetable to any chartreuse or antipasto platter. I have had these vegetables keep on the shelf sealed for over a year.
The Giardiniera is a great medley of pickled vegetables that is colorful and makes a wonderful display. Tastes great and well packaged for easy transport.

The Castella Giardiniera vegetable mix is a great variety of pickled vegetables that are great tasting and very good in appearance. They are great for our appetizer trays with meat and cheese.

A great mix of pickled vegetables that add the needed color to my antipasti tray. The vegetables taste great, but they are a tad soggy.
Verified Purchase
it has a good amount of veggies in it but it is way too hot. To the point where people couldn't eat it. It is probably from having the pepperoncinis in it
We appreciate your review, Jennifer! We are sorry you did not prefer this product, for recommendations please contact our Customer Solutions team!
Spice up your salads and or sandwiches with this Castella Giardiniera. A good flavor, brightly colored and crisp vegetables. Time saving product, and reasonably priced.

This was so bad, I dumped it in my compost pile. I expected the vegetables to be in vinegar. Instead all I tasted was the large hot green peppers that were in this vegetable mix. The cauliflower and carrots might as well have been hot green peppers. I like hot sauces, horseradish, mustards, and I put jalapenos on my sub sandwiches.....but I could not stand this. .

This Castella mixture gets my vote for sure. I had originally planned to use them in a recipe but quickly learned they are great right out of the jar!!

We order our 1 gallon salad mixes in fours as they then get shipped in a proper box. They add extra seals around the lids and also place in bags for additional security. Great addition to your salad bar.

We use this Castella Giadiniera to add to antipasto salads. This jar has a good mix of pickled vegetables in there and are quite tasty. And they are not overpoweringly sour which is good. We like this.

This is definitely similar to chow chow/ It can be added to shredded cabbage for hot slaw. This is popular in the American south but tasty all over.

Got this for the Holidays Great when you want that extra to enhance your Holiday dinner and not take away from it and better than a salad Because you can keep this on hand when needed.

We treat are customers to this as part of our relish tray. Many people asking where we got this awesome pickled veggies from. We added this to our standard platform on our buffet.

These Castella Giardiniera, Italian pickled veggies were well worth the wait. The flavor is different from the brand we had been using--these taste fresher, in fact. We had trouble getting this product to arrive in one piece, due to an accident in shipping, but WebstaurantStore worked hard to remedy that, promptly sending out a replacement. Thanks so much!
