| Description | Selargius capers preserved with Sardinian salt: these elite capers are the smaller in size and the most prized |
|---|---|
| Appearance | The shape is round, with a smooth surface and a very small calibre |
| Taste | Sweet and intense, slightly savory, pleasantly crisp |
| Curiosity | The caper is a concentrate of perfume and flavour, recognisable both in taste and texture. Not to be confused, however, with 'cucunci' which came from the same plant but instead of being the bud (like capers) they are its fruit! |
| Suggestions | Ideal to used raw, for marinations or meat tartare |
| Weight | 200 g |

| Packaging | Glass jar |
The producer
Il Cappero Selargino - Selargius (CA) - Sardinia
Why we chose them
The caper is present in the Mediterranean area before recorded time, always used for food and medicines. In Sardinia, the cultivation of capers -
tapparas in Sardinian - has characterized Selargius since early 1800s. A few decades ago, due to land abandonment, was about to be forgotten. Il
Cappero Selargino has rediscovered this traditional crop thanks to Marco Maxia, who has dedicated many years to the study of the cultivation of
caper carrying out research in Selargius and other area, such as Pantelleria, to find a place to restore capers' value. The union between innovation
and respect for tradition gives rise to a range of high-quality product, mild, succulent and appreciated by the finest palates
