Subtitle: Ever bitten into something and thought, “Whoa, what is that salty, tangy little burst of flavor?” That, my friend, was probably a caper.
Let me tell you about the first time I had capers.
I was in my late twenties, and I was eating chicken piccata at an Italian restaurant. I kept getting these little pops of briny, almost lemony goodness. I had no clue what they were. Olives? Some weird kind of pea?
After asking the waiter, I finally figured it out. Capers. And from that moment, I was hooked.
