Sicilian Capers in Sea Salt

Capers are often successfully grown in wall cracks and between stones, where it is easier for the seeds to take root, but also in boxes of peat or sand. They are harvested in summer, usually from June-July to September. Capers  are grown and harvested not only for their characteristic taste but also for their beneficial properties. Common capers have been officially included among the traditional Italian agri-food products, while the capers typical of Pantelleria have received the protected geographical indication (I.G.P).

Properties of capers

The aromatic properties of capers that are known very well are contained in the flower buds. The capers are used in the kitchen for their characteristic flavor. But their beneficial properties go beyond the organoleptic characteristics. Capers have some substances considered very useful from the herbal point of view.

They are rich in quercitin, a substance that makes them particularly active about diuretic properties. The consumption of capers is useful to protect blood vessels. They have healing properties concerning hemorrhoids, varicose veins, and gout. They contain vitamin A, vitamin C and B. They are rich in minerals such as calcium, potassium, iron, and phosphorus.

Capers are a natural remedy for allergies. The active ingredients of capers have therefore been used to obtain a remedy that can reduce the symptoms of the most common allergies, along with olive leaves, currant nigrum, and licorice root. Besides, the peel of caper roots has astringent and antispasmodic properties. Finally, capers stimulate appetite and digestion.

Uses of capers

What is called capers are the buds of the flower of the homonymous plant? After harvesting, they are prepared for preservation for culinary use. In the kitchen, capers are used to flavor dishes of various kinds and are an excellent condiment for pasta. They are also used on pizza, with olives or in their replacement. In addition to capers, among the edible buds are nasturtium, calendula, and dandelion.

Capers are also consumed as leaves, which are collected, blanched and prepared in salads with other vegetables. Other culinary uses see the capers as the protagonists of the preparation of the Sicilian aubergine caponata, according to the original recipe it is an excellent sauce to dress the pasta or to spread on bread that you can prepare simply by blending capers and black olives in equal quantities and adding extra virgin olive oil  to obtain a more fluid and homogeneous consistency. Capers are also excellent as an additional ingredient in the preparation of cakes and rice salads or green summer salads, as well as to make the fillings of fresh homemade pasta tastier.

From natural medicine, capers were used in ancient times to prepare a special infusion, based on the roots of the plant and the youngest shoots, which was considered useful to relieve rheumatism. In herbal medicine, bark and roots are used in particular. The decoction prepared with the roots was used to wash ulcers and wounds. Essential oils are used for massages.

How to store capers in salt

The capers are still harvested closed and stored in salt. The preparation of salted capers is one of the many nature preserves that can be prepared at home. The large kitchen salt is perfect to store them without using additives or chemicals. Use only two ingredients in equal quantities: capers and cooking salt without additives.

For example, you will need 1 kg of capers and 1 kg of coarse salt. To prepare salted capers, collect the buds when they are not yet open, leaving 2 mm of the stem. Wash them well, drain them and let them dry in the sun for about two hours on a clean cloth.

Then pour on the bottom of a glass or earthenware jar a layer of coarse salt and one of the capers, alternating them until they reach the top of the jar and making sure that the last layer is salt that is more abundant than the others. Close and store in a dry place, which can be kept for long, even one year. Just one thing: remember to rinse the capers out of the jar before eating, to remove the excess salt.

This is another great product that is the result of years of careful selection, love for the land and passion for quality of the Gangi Dante Farm at the heart of Sicily in Italy. The key to the company is simply Sicily with all its aromas and tastes. Ciao!

Suggestion: Enjoy it as a snack or use it in cooking. Use it as a side complement with meat dishes, especially meatballs.

Soap for dry skin on the face and body
This soap does soften the skin of the affected area but the itching still continues. I am not sure if there is an anti itch ingredient in the soap but there should be.

Don’t rub, break it down between your fingers and dab!!
Style: 4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Great sunscreen. The first time I applied it, i made the mistake of rubbing it in so it gave me a white cast. I learned my mistake the second time, spreading it in between my fingers and than dabbing it on my face, it gives a cast at first but after a few minutes it went away. And it feels so good. like I’m not wearing anything. I tried the tinted sunscreen it feels good but it made me look orange. I used to wear the Eucerin Daily Lotion spf 30 but they discontinued so I had to look for a replacement and after trying other sunscreens they were all terrible; greasy, allergic reactions and too creamy! This one’s perfect, it’s definitely my new go to!!

The Only SPF My Skin Will Tolerate!
Style: 4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
After 20 rounds of radiation, I was given a list of exactly four things I could put on my face--things like water and Vaseline. Of course, I was also instructed to wear SPF in "all visible light." However, finding a sunscreen my skin could tolerate proved to be a challenge, as even those made with clean ingredients, marketed for babies, and/ or claiming to be hypoallergenic resulted in hot, angry rashes. Price point also didn't matter; I tried everything from drugstore to premium brands. Thankfully, when this product came on the market, my dermatologist suggested I try it. I've been wearing it ever since. It IS thick so I usually rub any remaining face moisturizer into my palms and then add the Sunscreen, rubbing and warming it between my palms to make it more easily spreadable. Then I press it onto the skin on my face with my palms and fingers--I don't like to pull or tug too much at the skin on my face. At first, there is a visible white cast, but it disappears within a couple of minutes. If I'm really in a hurry, now I can mix a tiny bit of my foundation into the sunscreen so that it spreads faster and I can move on from the white cast faster--I know I lose some sun protection factor that way, but my derm says I also gain some protection in the tinting, so it's okay. The important thing is that I get it on in whatever time I have. I'm just grateful to have found something that doesn't upset my crazy-sensitive skin! Wishing all you sensitive beauties protected fun in the sun...

Good sun protection without chemicals, without a high price.
Style: 4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I've bought this a couple of times. I feel like it gives excellent sun protection at a reasonable price. I mostly use it on my face. When I first apply it, it looks a little white and pasty, but it doesn't take long for that to go away. It's a little greasy at first , but I have dry skin, so I it absorbs in. I like using a sunscreen that doesn't have a lot of chemicals. This works well while using ingredients I feel good about putting on my skin.
