Agostino Recca Capers in salt have a unique flavor, which can add that special taste to your favorite recipes. Preserving Capers: Capers are pickled in brine or preserved in dry salt. Salting is generally preferred because, although it absorbs water on the outside, it maintains moisture, freshness and flavor on the inside of the skin without permeating the fruit with saltiness. Salted capers should be washed of their salt, or soaked for an hour in two changes of water to desalt them even more.
