Capers in Olive Oil from Salina Island 180g

The Aeolian Island of Salina, one and a half hours north of Sicily produces the finest capers in the world. Known as the setting of the 1995 film 'Il Postino", Salina enjoys a blistering sun and fertile, volcanic soil which gives these much sought after capers a higher acidity and sharper bite. The capers grow naturally and are of course organic, they are also a Slow Food product (Slow Food Presidia safeguard native breeds and local plant varieties at risk of dying out). Salina capers are carefully hand picked one by one and carefully preserved in sea salt and then later in oil.

Capers will add a natural richness and depth of flavour to all of your favourite sauces, soups, salads, stews, rice and pasta dishes. They can even be fried and then tossed into the dishes above for a crunchier, crispier flavour and texture.
