Karakoolaide, :thumbsup :thumbsup

They are delighting with charcuterie and cheeses too ..

Never had them fried however ..

They are usually gone the minute I get home .. I buy mine in a special kiosk normally where they are stored in a white vinegar brine, in oak barrels ..

They are a common tapa during harvest season ..

I also buy jars of them as well .. Very fond of them .. ( never put in frig as they are finished if we open a jar .. )

Have a lovely evening .. :lol: :lol: :wave :wave :wave

Jeral, Joan, Scullion, Suffs & Sue,

Thank you for all your feedback .. :wave :wave :wave

As I am in Portugal beginning a tour Tuesday, this shall be a quickie ..

1) A jar would never go in frig as there are never any left overs when it comes to Caperberries .. We are extraordinarily fond of them .. :lol: :lol:

2) I buy them from a Kiosk at the Le Mercat de La Boqueria, and they are stored in oak barrels in a white vinegar type brine .. :thumbsup :thumbsup

I have never seen them in salt .. :thumbsdown :thumbsdown

3) Thanks Joan for the suggestions .. Yes, I serve them with charcuterie and cheeses .. Or just down them !

Have a wonderful evening .. :wave :wave
