Bona Furtuna Salted Capers
$12.95
Made in Sicily, these high-quality Aeolian capers—preserved and packed in crunchy sea salt—begin on bushes that have been growing for centuries. They are tended to until flower buds bloom, before being picked and then cured. Plump, not dried-out and beautifully vegetal green, Bona Furtuna’s capers are salted rather than brined, unlike most store-bought brands where acid is the main taste you are left with. The salty punch from these capers is balanced with subtle notes of delicate citrus and herbs, a mixture of nuanced flavors that will enhance any dish. Just be sure to rinse and soak them for 30 minutes before use to mellow their saltiness.
Not sure how you’d use it?
We test everything we sell. Here’s how we’d use this.
HOW TO USE
Use anywhere you would capers. We especially like them in our Pasta with Fried Capers and Toasted Breadcrumbs, Orange, Fennel and Caper Salad or Deviled Eggs with Tuna, Olives and Capers.
Kitchen Notes
Rinse capers well and let sit in cold water for 30 minutes. Rinse and repeat a few more times so their saltiness isn’t overpowering.
Bona Furtuna
The Bona Furtuna farm is under the stewardship of Pasquale “Mimmo” Marino, a master botanist. He’s studied Sicily’s unique ecosystem for over two decades to preserve ancient plant varietals and keep traditional practices alive.
