Pantelleria is a seductive idyll of mud baths, romantic ruins and secluded swimming coves. It’s also rocky and wind-whipped, making it quieter than its big-sister island next door.
The Man Who Loves Capers (free)
The Man Who Loves Capers (free)
Most visitors to Italy travel to Rome, Venice, Capri, and other popular tourist sites. John Savittieri of Maple-wood took the road less traveled to the tiny Sicilian island of Pantelleria, where he fell in love with a tiny edible flower bud and his life path bloomed into a new career. Capparis spinosa plants grow wild across the island, their large white flowers growing on prickly stems. But the buds of undeveloped flowers are capers, and once cured and pickled, they are prized worldwide for their briny, tangy seasoning. Savittieri is now working to bring the world’s best capers to the United States.
