Capers
Alcaparras in Spanish
Capers are the pickled buds of a type of evergreen shrub. They have a salty, tangy flavor and are used as a seasoning or condiment. Capers pair well with other salty ingredients, such as olives, anchovies, and Parmesan cheese. They can also be paired with lemon juice or vinegar to balance out the flavors.
