Poor Mans Capers - The Verdict

Sometimes you read recipes that try to convince you they can taste like something else and they don't (bottle of wheat wine anyone), and sometimes, just sometimes, they nail it.
 
 
These "capers" are just that - they've nailed it. We had them with "Whores" pasta the other night and if you hadn't of told me they weren't real capers I wouldn't have known!
I'll definitely be doing these again next year and planting some extra nasturtiums so we have more to pick from.

  2. I have never heard of using the seeds like that. I planted them last year and just used the flowers in salads. I will have to wait until next year to try it.
