Caper-Studded Caponata

Caper-Studded Caponata

I find this version of caponata, which contains a sweet red pepper and capers, particularly delicious. Spread it on your favorite gluten-free crackers or flatbread, such as Yogurt Flatbread (page 62) or over thinly sliced cucumber or spears of Belgian endive, or that old stand-by, celery sticks.
