FRATELLI D'AMICO Capers in Salt, Size #10, Italian Salted Capers, 35.3 oz | Premium Capers Non Pareil, Salted Caperi for Seasoning, Garnish, Sauces, Meat & Seafoods, Non-GMO, Product of Italy

These capers were delicious. Impossible to find them in local stores. I was able to carry on my husband’s family tradition of caper salad for holiday meals. They were perfect in size and delicious.

These taste great! Don't worry about the salt, just wash it off and they are only a bit salty compared to pickled. The flavor is better than canned. You can wash and eat with little problem. I don't tolerate salty food, so I was hesitant to buy. I am glad I did!

Great quality and quantity at a reasonable price. I order these several times a year.

Good quality but expensive

Size, taste and texture were spot on. Would buy again

This is what you need to know. Pull out the amount of capers you want, put them in a bowl, cover with water. Remove the capers, I usually use a fork, dump the salt and water out. Do this one more time. It removes the big salt crystals. Then soak in fresh water, maybe 10 minutes or so. Taste one or 2, if it's still too salty, soak a little longer. Try not to do it too long, it will dilute the flavor of the caper. I recommend these capers, anything in brine is too pickley, I don't want pickle, stick with corniche for that.

These are so good! They add the perfect amount of salt and flavor.

These have worked okay for me, but won’t buy them again. The capers are quite large and do have nice firm texture. They’re the saltiest salt-cured capers I’ve ever come across though and need to soak longer than most in several water changes to remove some of the salt. A high proportion of the buds are very loose and cling onto the salt. Definitely taste before adding them to recipes to make sure enough of the salt is gone. Won’t reorder because: 1. Came in an almost comically cheap plastic tub. I transferred them to a glass jar in the fridge and didn’t see the recycle code but it kind of looks like the type that will be leaching nasty chemicals into all that salt. 2. They occasionally have an aftertaste that’s vaguely fishy. It’s slight and not unpleasant but is odd. It’s just a hint and doesn’t ruin the capers but still. This manufacturer packs anchovies as well so….hmmm. 3. The floral, delicate taste of capers doesn’t come through enough maybe because they need to be soaked more than others I’ve used. They do have a nice fruitiness to them. Were purchased in a hurry and I didn’t notice there’s no mention of origin other than Italy. Seems likely the raw product just isn’t as good as from specific islands. And again the buds are very loose. My bad—you get what you pay for. In theory, they were a deal for salt-cured capers, but I’ve had them quite awhile, usually go through capers like mad and still have over 3/4 of these left. These still beat capers in brine by a mile—no comparison— and are economical for this type of product. But I’ll try La Nicchia from Pantelleria next time. Actually, after writing this I may order them now:)
