Olives, anchovies, and capers are the secret components behind the magical tastes of the Mediterranean. Include sliced green olives to meals like Almond Couscous with Carrot and Cumin Chicken, for example, and the subtle sweet taste of the dish is delightfully complemented; anchovies do similar wonders in a potato salad with tuna; and capers add depth and nuance to a lamb stew with tomatoes and sweet peppers. Beginning with brief essays that explore the characteristics of olives, anchovies, and capers, and likewise supplying directions for home-curing (you may never put up olives or anchovies, but it's interesting to know how it's done), the book then uses dishes in chapters committed to appetisers and salads; main meals and spreads; sauces and breads.
