The capers can be a bit over-powering, especially for younger kids, so I rinsed them and sliced them finely.Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05034393029337881068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8104208349190221469.post-74217253316230784412007-05-16T23:37:00.000-07:002007-05-16T23:37:00.000-07:00Susan,I agree, their flavor can be a bit overwhelm...Susan,<BR/>I agree, their flavor can be a bit overwhelming.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03476501320662187793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8104208349190221469.post-61527035135068406552007-05-16T16:46:00.000-07:002007-05-16T16:46:00.000-07:00I'll eat capers but only in moderation.

But hey, we're thinking alike. :P<BR/><BR/>I love capers though and add quite a bit to mine. Maybe you can start it off with using some in insalata caprese? I use minced capers in my version. And green olives too. But then, I like sour things. And I omitted the anchovies. I love using lots of anchovies in my Caesar salad dressing, but when I tried it in this dish, it just overpowered everything else.Wandering Chopstickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04703018765718062460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8104208349190221469.post-39499807285594774612007-05-13T22:33:00.000-07:002007-05-13T22:33:00.000-07:00More like one part in five. :(More like one part in five. :(Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02603577324982733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8104208349190221469.post-14341698700261447342007-05-13T22:10:00.000-07:002007-05-13T22:10:00.000-07:00Thanks for your entry, nothing beats a good pasta ...Thanks for your entry, nothing beats a good pasta alla puttanesca like yours!
