I am a big fan of texture when it comes to salads or pasta - a little extra crunch can transform a dish. I'm also a big fan of salt, so it's no wonder that I love these Crispy Capers. They're also the easiest thing in the world to make. Oh, except for I burnt the first batch and nearly set off the smoke detector. But the second batch was the easiest thing in the world to make! A couple tablespoons of canola oil, a bottle of drained and dried capers, a few minutes over medium-high heat... done. Let them dry on some paper towel and they're ready to sprinkle over pasta or salad. Or you can just snack on them, like I do, with everything in life.
They are also delicious over roasted cauliflower...
