Capers of Pantelleria since 1949
When the founders Antonio and Girolamo passed away, their sons garnered the heritage of their fathers’ painstaking and precious toil and entrusted it to Gabriele Lasagni, who carried out extensive studies and research on the raw materials that Pantelleria is endowed with and now manages La Nicchia with a passion. Sixty years on, ours is the only farming company in Pantelleria that operates as a Farm, a Caper Processing Plant, and a Specialty Food Laboratory.
The capers are all of the same, carefully chosen size to give the product a uniform consistency. The capers are desalted and sun-dried first then dried in the dehydrator to give recipes a crunchy touch that is totally unusual for capers. Great fun to use for garnishing fish, meat and pasta dishes. Also perfect to nibble as appetizers just as they are.

Pantelleria capers sorted in three different sizes (small - medium - large) preserved in sea salt. Use small capers for garnishing fish and red or white meat dishes. Use large capers for flavoring tomato sauces or making creamy sauces and pâtés. Medium-sized capers can be used for both (garnishing and flavoring). Rinse off the salt before use.
