| Description | The flower buds, fruits (berries) and leaves of Capparis spinosa (caper) have been used as food within the EU before 15 May 1997. Capparis spinosa , the caper bush, is a perennial winter-deciduous species that bears rounded, fleshy leaves and large white to pinkish-white flowers. It belongs to the plant family Capparidaceae (Capparaceae). A caper is also the pickled bud of this plant. Caper bush is present in almost all the circum-Mediterranean countries and is included in the floristic composition of most of them but whether it is indigenous to this region is uncertain. Although the flora of the Mediterranean region has considerable endemism, the caper bush could have originated in the tropics, and later been naturalized to the Mediterranean basin. The plant is best known for the edible bud and fruit (caper berry), which are usually consumed pickled. Other species of Capparis are also picked along with C. spinosa for their buds or fruits. The salted and pickled caper bud (also called simply capers) is often used as a seasoning or garnish. Capers are a common ingredient in Mediterranean cuisine, especially Cypriot, Italian and Maltese. The mature fruit of the caper shrub are also prepared similarly, and marketed as caper berries. They are commonly used in salads, pasta salads, pizzas, meat dishes and pasta sauces. In addition, the Greeks make good use of the caper's leaves, whi |
