Sicilian Caponata from Libera Terra
Agrodolce (sweet and tangy) eggplant caponata direct from Sicily. Caponata is a dish from Sicily's Arab past. It is so diffused across the island that it is one of those recipes that changes from household to household, each person with their own version.
It is a perfect compliment to any antipasto platter or accompaniment to larger dishes, such as sausages and fish.
Libera Terra was founded with the goal of developing stunning but “difficult” territories, through the social and productive recovery of the land freed from the Mafias and the making of high-quality products obtained using environmentally and socially friendly methods. It also plays an active role in the territory, involving other producers who share the same principles and encouraging organic farming. Beyond rehabilitating the land, Libera Terra is also involved in the regional schools, educating the youth about what they do and the importance of changing the social norms.
The Caponata comes from the Sicilian Territories.
