Capers, used as a seasoning or condiment, are the pickled, unopened buds of the caper bush, a spiny shrub native to dry, rocky areas in the Mediterranean. In Italy, acres of caper bushes are grown, from which harvesters pick the buds at their prime. Once harvested, the buds are sun-dried and then pickled in a vinegar brine. Capers cannot be served fresh, as they have a bitter flavor. They must be pickled before eating. Capers range in size from petite to large, depending on how long they are allowed to grow. Petite buds offer a higher quality compared to larger ones because the petals are more tightly packed. Agostino Recca's capers are of the petite type (non-pareil), preserved the old fashioned way, as they are packed in rock salt. The salt is a preservative but also adds flavor. Rinse or soak the capers in water before usage to eliminate excess salt. |
