Tips:

  • Choose fresh capers for the best flavor.
  • If using salted capers, rinse them well before use to remove excess salt.
  • Use a good quality balsamic vinegar. A cheap vinegar will not have the same flavor or complexity.
  • Heat the balsamic vinegar over low heat until it thickens slightly. This will help to concentrate the flavor.
  • Add the capers to the balsamic vinegar and cook for a few minutes, or until they are heated through.
  • Serve the capers in balsamic vinegar as an appetizer, side dish, or condiment.

Conclusion:

Capers in balsamic vinegar is a simple but delicious dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It is a great way to add a pop of flavor to your meals. The capers are salty and tangy, while the balsamic vinegar is sweet and tart. The two flavors complement each other perfectly. This dish is also very easy to make. It can be ready in just a few minutes. If you are looking for a new and exciting way to enjoy capers, try them in balsamic vinegar. You won't be disappointed.
