Instructions
Heat oil to 365-75* F in a medium saucepan.
If you haven't a thermometer, this is hot but definitely not smoking.
Lower the capers, (I use a Chinese deep frying wire utensil) a few at a time, into the oil and fry until they suddenly pop open and look like little flower buds.
Let them cook for a couple of seconds, remove, and drain on paper towels.
Salt, sparingly, since they are salty already.
Serve.
