About Tbs capers
Tbs Capers are small, tangy, and salty flower buds harvested from the caper bush, commonly used in Mediterranean cuisine. These tiny green spheres are typically pickled or brined, giving them a distinct flavor that enhances dishes like pasta, salads, and seafood. A tablespoon serving of capers contains minimal calories, low fat, and is rich in antioxidants, including rutin and quercetin, which may support heart health and reduce inflammation. They also provide small amounts of vitamins like vitamin K and minerals such as magnesium. However, capers are high in sodium due to the brining process, which could be a concern for those monitoring their salt intake. Pair them with fresh ingredients and use sparingly for a flavorful but balanced addition to meals. Known for their bold taste, capers bring a burst of Mediterranean flair while offering nutritional benefits when enjoyed in moderation.
