re: In What Dishes Do You Use Capers?

I put them in my caponata.

Only thing thats a pain is just trying to get a few out of the small jars without dumping a bunch of the liquid out

How about pouring them into a small bowl, fishing the number you want out with a slotted spoon or fork and pour the rest back into the jar?

Works for me.

A nice puttanesca sauce

Pork Medallions with Olive-Caper Sauce

I think I got the recipe out of Cooking Light years ago. Versions are all over the web.

I've posted this before, but Pioneer Woman has a recipe that is an add-on to her normal red wine braised short ribs. After it is all cooked, you remove the ribs and add grainy mustard, heavy cream, and a healthy heap of capers (2+ tblspoons) and let it reduce a little. It brings the short ribs to a whole different level, and it is fantastic.

That looks delicious.
