Capers packed in salt have a fresher, almost floral flavour and aroma. They keep their shape and firmness better, too. Rinse brined capers before using. Salt-packed capers are too salty to be eaten straight from the jar; soak them in cool water for about 15 minutes and rinse in several changes of water. If the capers are large, you can chop them roughly unless you want a big burst of caper flavor. For an unusual garnish or salad addition, pat capers dry and then lightly fry them in a little olive oil. They'll get crisp and open up like the little flowers they are. Also a great addition to fish meals.

Caper berries have a complex flavor that spans from lemony to briny, just like their tiny relations. As a result, they can readily be used in place of olives, either as an ingredient or simply as a quick nosh alongside antipasto. Caper berries are most often found brined in jars or tins, so at the very least a quick rinse is recommended before you serve them. They can be roasted, or even pan-fried until their skin crisps up – leave the stems on for easy eating as finger food.
