Capers, the preserved bud of the caper plant, are an essential part of Mediterranean cooking. These capers are biologically cultivated on Salina, one of the Aeolian Islands. Salina is well-known for its flavorful capers, the result of exceptionally fertile soil and favorable climates. The word for caper comes from the Arabic word kabur. There is a strong association between the caper plant and oceans and seas due to the proximity of the plant to these areas. The caper plant is said to be native to the Mediterranean basin, but its range actually stretches from the Atlantic coasts of the Canary Islands, Morocco to the Black Sea, to Crimea and Armenia, and eastward to the Caspian Sea and into Iran.It makes sense that capers are an integral element of Mediterranean cuisine. Their sharp tangy bite often accent fish, pizza, salads and sauces. To bring about the complex flavors of the caper they must be cured. They are first dried in the sun and then packed under layers of salt, vinegar, wine or salt brine. During this process the natural mustard oil intensifies and the capers develop their characteristic piquant flavor. Many culinary authorities prize capers packed under layers of salt, the flavor being brighter and more intense. Occasionally one can also find the cured or pickled young sprouts, or leaves of the caper bush also used as a condiment.

This particular Sicilian Almond & Caper Spread unites the sweetness and fragrance of two essential Sicilian ingredients; capers of Pantelleria and delicious Sicilian almonds. Capers occupy a permanent post in the Mediterranean flora. Between May and September caper bushes begin to flower and the buds becomes what we know as capers. Pantelleria island is a hot, dry, wind-swept volcanic island south of Sicily and east of Tunisia. The capers from Pantelleria are the best of all. For four main reasons: the island's volcanic soil give the capers their particular taste; the temperature of the island alternates between hot days and cool nights giving the capers their strong fragrance; there is a rich tradition of growing and picking capers on Pantelleria; and last but not least, the particular caper variety, which grows only on Pantelleria (the cultivar spinosa nocellara), is very special and rare plant. Pantelleria capers are so unique, they are the only capers that are certified IGP (Indicazione Geografica Protetta). Then we have the Sicilian Almonds. Sicilian almonds are the best almonds in the world due to the fact that they are naturally grown in Sicily's volcanic soil. Unlike other almonds they are also sundried rather than dried through using industrial machinery. Our Sicilian Almond & Caper spread is an excellent appetizer for canapè, toasted bread and focaccia bread. Suggested for pasta dishes as well! Ingredients: Capers 45%, Extravirgin olive oil, almonds 9%, parsley, basil. (2.99 OZ) - also available at giannettiartisans.com
