Why It’s On Our Shelves
weet, tangy and beautifully balanced — a true Italian classic
These Borettane Onions in Balsamic Vinegar from Casalinga are a small but mighty delicacy — delivering depth, sweetness, and gentle acidity in every bite.
Named after the Boretto region of Italy, these naturally golden onions are carefully preserved in rich Balsamic Vinegar of Modena, allowing their sweetness to develop alongside a mellow, tangy edge. The result is a beautifully balanced flavour — soft, savoury, and lightly caramelised with that unmistakable balsamic richness.
They’re effortlessly versatile. Serve them alongside meats, add to salads, or place them on a grazing board — or simply enjoy them straight from the jar with an aperitif. However you serve them, they bring a touch of Italian elegance to the table.
