You can also use Caper Berbere to marinate your vegetables, lean meats, poultry foods, and fish and other seafood before roasting, grilling or barbequing. Go for a dry rub with salt or in combination with olive oil or curd.

Sprinkle a generous amount of Caper Berbere on steaks of meat, chicken, fish or even vegetables like cauliflower and Brussels sprouts. Toss them in a pan and sear with butter for a few minutes. The spice mix will not only enhance the aroma and nuttiness but also give you a sensory experience while relishing the food.

You can even enjoy crunchy croutons seasoned with Caper Berbere. Sprinkle it on the croutons along with olive oil before putting them in the oven. Enjoy with soup or as munchies!

You can similarly use Caper Berbere to add a mild spicy punch to vegetables such as brinjals and sweet potatoes before baking them.

‘Tadka’ or tempering is the soul of Indian food. Caper Berbere makes an excellent tempering element for vegetable dips too.

There are some things that you can’t live without when it comes to your food. You have to have them in your kitchen. An all-around seasoning is one such thing. It simply peps up the palate of most dishes without overshadowing their natural flavours. 

Ishka Farms Caper Pepper Sprinkle, a medley of black peppers and capers is the perfect finishing salt for all your seasoning needs. This magical sprinkle hits with a punch like no other flavour enhancer does! The sprinkle is vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and soy-free with zero preservatives and chemicals.

Matchless Blend of Ingredients 

This sprinkle contains the aroma and heat of the best Black Peppercorns we source directly from the Western Ghats of Kerala. The Black Peppercorns are the dried form of green berries produced by a flowering vine called Pipernigrum. 

The second ingredient is Ishka Farms Caper Salt which brings pleasant savouriness to the sprinkle. The umami comes from Ishka Farms Flinders Rose (Caper Flower) that we cure in the mineral-rich Tuticorin Sea Salt. 

The subtle under notes of dehydrated onion powder and dehydrated garlic powder amplify the fruity notes of the Black Peppercorns in the sprinkle. 

The Ishka Sea Salt is the final ingredient that intensifies the flavours of the sprinkle.

Shake, Sprinkle, Season 

Do you know what’s the best thing about Ishka Farms Caper Pepper Sprinkle? You can get as creative as you want with the recipes. You can dust it on your favourite meals and pair it with practically everything!

For instance, you can use this finishing salt to season dips, marinades and dressings. You can sprinkle it or even use it generously in ricotta, hung curd, cheese or soup as per your taste. It also makes a great topping for fruits, eggs and popcorn. 

If you are bored of using the regular table salt and pepper seasoning for your fried snacks, then it’s time to switch to Ishka Farms Caper Pepper Sprinkle. It brings a touch of oomph to fried snacks such as cashew nuts, lotus stems, potato wedges, sweet potato wedges and yucca/cassava fries.

We also highly recommend it for Tempura (our all-time favourite by the way!).
