Small Onions in Balsamic Vinegar (Cipolline in Aceto Balsamico)

Oliveri Cipolline in Aceto Balsamico are whole pearl onions slow-cooked and marinated in aged balsamic vinegar, a refined Northern Italian delicacy. Handcrafted in Piemonte by the Oliveri family, these baby onions develop a deep, caramelized sweetness and velvety glaze with a balanced sweet-and-sour finish. Clean-label, preservative-free, and full of complexity from the slow balsamic marinade.
