Caper berries are the semi-green fruit of a Capparis Spinosa, the flowering bush that grows wild along the Mediterrnaean coastline, and are the prized, less intense version of the typical nonpareil caper. These juicy, pickled, grape-sized treats are wonderful with seafood and as a garnish for salads. Enjoy their delicate texture just like an olive or toss with pasta in a cream or butter sauce.
Cannellini beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) are relatives of the kidney bean; in fact, they are sometimes called white kidney beans because they look like just that. They are also called fazolia beans and are popular in Italian cuisine. They are about a half inch long, kidney shaped, and have a tough skin. Their flavor is mildly nutty and their texture is smooth and creamy when cooked. This bean was originally cultivated in Argentina by Italian immigrants and later taken to Italy where they are now grown commercially.
The Borlotti beans are an excellent source of vitamin B1, they are rich in phosphorus, magnesium, iron and potassium. Consumed with other grains, such as brown rice, they provide high-quality protein.
Cento Lupini Beans are ready to eat right out of the jar. Simply rinse and pinch off the skin and eat as a snack, drizzle with Cento Extra Virgin Olive Oil, salt and pepper, or add to your favorite dish for an extra intake of fiber and antioxidants.
Krinos Capers are packed in a brine to enhance their zestful flavor and preserve their freshness. A touch lemony, these tiny pickled buds are a versatile seasoning or garnish.
