Cooks' Question

I find that the taste of capers is far too strong. Can I leave them out when following recipes?

Response

Capers are very much an acquired taste. However, the flavour should not be too overpowering if they are drained and pressed between absorbent kitchen paper to remove any excess vinegar. Or you could try salted capers, which are just preserved in brine.
