Capers are a classic in a lot of seafood dishes. They are often served
with smoked salmon canapés. They are pickled (or brined?) and are
available in most grocery stores.

In a big jar of olives I bought recently, there were these big caper -
flowers, I would guess they would be, they were sorta in the shape of a
banana flower, tho, of course they were small & green. They are quite
tasty. Pucker up!
