Product Features

More Information
Description	Capers grown on Pantelleria, but without a protected designation of origin, preserved in sea salt at a concentration not exceeding 25%
Appearance	Small to medium in size and dark green in colour
Taste	Aromatic and vegetal, appropriately savoury, with moderate intensity
Curiosity	The capers are harvested at dawn, from mid-May to the end of September; at the end of the day, they are placed in special vats to mature slowly in brine, using methods handed down from father to son. They are then preserved in sea salt: it is the salt that brings out the capers' characteristic fragrance
Our selection	Capers produced by the Pantelleria-based company Kazzen, run by Marilena and Alessandro: since 2004, they have been dedicated to growing caper plants and Zibibbo grapes, a story of craftsmanship, passion and dedication to promoting and valuing these extraordinary products of the island
Suggestions	Perfect for use in recipes: in a puttanesca sauce (with peeled tomatoes, black olives, capers, anchovies, garlic and chilli), in a tuna sauce or on pizza

The producer

KAZZEN - PANTELLERIA (TP) - SICILY

Why we chose them

Kazzen, a name that evokes a historic district, is a farm located on the island of Pantelleria. It is run by Marilena and Alessandro, who, since 2004, have discovered the treasures and opportunities hidden within the cultivation of capers and Zibibbo grapes. Since then, they have devoted themselves to promoting the island's extraordinary raw materials and the products they create from them following ancient local recipes and using only extra virgin olive oil and salt, with absolutely no chemical preservatives. Their product range is wide, but the island's symbol is undoubtedly the caper. In Pantelleria, in fact, caper cultivation is favoured by the volcanic soil and the warm climate, and has a long tradition evidenced by crops dating back centuries and known since Roman times.
