The flower bud of the caper plant has been used in food for a long time, it was mentioned in the bible, in Greek and Latin classical literature and there are also references of its use as a medicine and a cosmetic. Capers are the flower bud of a bush that is native to the Mediterranean and parts of Asia. These pickled capers are delightfully sour, yet full of flavour. They deliver pungency and character to sauces and dishes, usually paired with meats and seafood.
