The caper is the flower bud of the Capparis Spinosa - a wild shrub that flourishes in the crevices and cracks of walls along the Mediterranean coasts of Spain. The pink flowers have an extremely short life -- opening in the early morning and wilting by noon. In the early morning hours of a summer day in Murcia, the buds are picked by hand and immediately pickled in brine for two months. Next they are placed in wine vinegar which gives them their typically sharp taste. You cannot purchase a higher quality caper than these tiny non-pareilles capers from Andaluci�a. Capers add a subtle zestiness that brightens up all sorts of dishes - soups, salads, stews, pastas, grilled fish, chops, and more. Turn loose your culinary imagination. You will be delighted with the flavorful addition of capers in many of your favorite dishes.
