Exploring the Intriguing World of Capers
A beloved ingredient in numerous Mediterranean cuisines, capers add a delightful tang to any meal. Interestingly, their appearance on the vine is vastly different, where they are surrounded by a profusion of flowers. To harness their unique flavor, these buds must undergo a pickling process before they’re ready to grace your plate.
Eliminating the vinegar or salt would drastically alter the flavor profile of capers! Should you choose the rewarding path of cultivating them at home, opt for slightly larger flower buds. This size variation will yield a more robust flavor, making them a delightful enhancement to your regular cream cheese.
