You know that

Caponata, like much of the island’s gastronomy, boasts a complex and millenary history. Its name, Caponata, could derive from the ancient Greek – CaptosCapto that means cut, to indicate the Greek way of cutting vegetables into pieces of more or less the same size.
There is no doubt that its origin and its variants are linked to the different dominations that have been present in Sicily over the centuries and that have left their gastronomic imprint: Greeks, Arabs, Romans, French, Spanish

Our version of caponata is a family recipe handed down from generation to generation. Its roots are in the area of Catania, therefore with the addition of raisins and pine nuts.
In Sicily there are about 37 variants of caponata but, it is also widespread throughout the Mediterranean Sea, generally used as a side dish or appetizer

Ideal as an appetizer or side dish, we recommend adding freshly cut basil before serving it on a fresh and lightly toasted crouton.

It can be a single dish combined with pieces of freshly seared tuna or swordfish. You can also combine it with our mackerel fillets or mackerel pate.
