    Caponata Di Melenzane: Cuoco

    $2.95

    Caponata Di Melanzane is another popular aubergine eggplant appetizer from Sicily.
    This dish can be served in a variety of ways (with a variety of accompaniments).
    7oz Can

    While there are many variations of Caponata Di Melanzane, including versions that focus primarily on aubergine and tomatoes, our Cuoco brand includes eggplant, tomatoes, celery, water, onions, sunflower oil, sugar, olives, wine vinegar, olive oil, capers, and last but not least, salt. We encourage customers to try the eggplant appetizer with any number of our crackers. Yum.

    It’s interesting to look at some of the recipes online and how they differ from one another. In every addition or subtraction of an ingredient, we see a little character provided by the cook. For instance, some say that olives are key ingredients in Caponata Di Melanzane, while others leave them out altogether. That’s what we call character! At the same time, we all know that a little too much character can ruin a dish. Not to worry, though. Ours is the good kind. We promise!

It is best if served cold or at room temperature. For a side portion, you can include it with any kind of meat or poultry.

    Baby corn is traditionally harvested in the early stages of corn silk emerging.
    It is very important that the picking is timed properly, as picking too late will result in pieces of corn that are too far matured.

    This Roland brand baby corn is a great source of protein, and a pretty healthy choice, overall. It is very pleasing to eat, offering a sweet flavor, crisp bite, and delicate feel at a very affordable price. Unlike with mature ears of corn, it’s perfectly fine to consume the cob, which is delicate enough for consumption.

    This small whole baby corn has a fancy style, and is great as a finger food for get-togethers. If you prefer to eat it warm, you can heat it up with some butter or light parsley. Another popular option is to include it in a stir-fry, as you often see in local Chinese restaurants. In fact, baby corn appears most frequently in Asian cuisine, where it is often referred to as candle corn.
