Capparis Spinosa
WHIT THIS FLOWER I WISH YOU A MARVELLOUS AND SUNNY WEEKEND:)
LOVE Annamaria ( busy this days with a stage.....)
The caper (Capparis Spinosa) is a plant typical of the Mediterranean flora that has been cultivated since ancient times. The first quote of it can be found even in the Old Testament of the Bible.
The capers of Pantelleria are the Italian most precious capers (Capparis Spinosa Inermis Cultivar Nocellara). They are the only ones who received the PGI label (Protected Geographical Indication). Thanks to the combination of the volcanic soil and a warm and windy climate, capers in Pantelleria acquire a unique taste exalted only by their salt preservation.
The collection of these floral buttons called “capers” takes place every year from the end of May up to mid-September. After their collection and preservation by sea salt, the capers are ready to be used in various ways to give more flavour to many courses like first courses, second ones, sauces and condiments. The caper has the power to grant a special taste that enriches food creating very tasty dishes.
