Capers anyone?

I have been contemplating whether or not I should write a new blog. The gremlins that caused my page to look prettier than usual is a bit upset for me. But what the heck "wink" ... life must goes on :)

caper and flower by 5348 Franco.

Do you recognised the above flower? Or just like me, you have not seen it before? :)
I first came to know or rather to eat capers when I first visted Herb back in 2007! He introduced to me caper buds pickled while we were having breakfast (or was it dinner, I can't remember ;)

I see capers...I see Ana by puppies8691

Since then capers pickled been part of my daily diet :D Picture below is one of my simple dinner - grilled tomatoes with capers and cheddar cheese and served with roasted potatoes (with garlic) and sometimes sauteed mushrooms. This is normaly my simple dinner after a long day at work.

What's for dinner tonight by you.

Few days ago Herb showed me picture of capers plant that he said he's going to grow in his garden. I saw a small flower of capers and started google for capers flower. :D

Soon .... I mean maybe in a year or two ;) he will has his own capers bush with lots of pretty flowers like the one above :D

Do you happen to have capers flower in your garden too? Or do you have favorite recipe using capers? Do share! :)

Love - Larra

  2. I am sure you have Charlie! :) They use it a lot in pasta or also as caper sauce to eat with grilled fish.

    I called it simple because after coming back from work, I normally will be too tired to 'be' in the kitchen. So I just kind of threw everything in the oven and laying down on the sofa or pampehred myself in hot bath with aromatherapy oil .. and after 45 minutes my dinner is ready! :D
