“The caper is an irresistible fruit, a bit like chili.”
Capers delivered by local farmers from Salento, processed and matured under salt for 3-4 months, then jarred with sea salt from Margherita di Savoia.
Capers are a typical ingredient of the Salento landscape and its peasant tradition: sharp, versatile, able to give character to many dishes of Mediterranean cooking.
Our fresh capers are delivered to us by local farmers: we wash them, remove the stems and let them mature under salt, before jarring them for your kitchen.

Tradition
Capers are typical of the Salento landscape and its peasant tradition: throughout the 20th century, early in the morning, whole families would head to the fields to pick them one by one from the low, bushy plants. In the 1970s, Racale was among the leading towns in caper production.
Today, fewer and fewer farmers deliver capers to us: that is why we are committed to planting new plants in our area, so as not to lose this local crop.
