Notes
This recipe makes about 2 cups. If you are serving more than 4 people, better double it.
Always taste your food before salting. Since this has capers as an ingredient, which are salty by themselves, you don’t want to add too much more salt.
This can be made a day ahead and kept in the fridge for up to 4 days.
