By I’ve always been drawn to the deep, rich flavors of capstans. They are always popping up in places I usually buy my produce, so I tried to figure out where they came from. I’ve always thought of them as a food that would work well in a Mediterranean-style meal. I’ve been following this recipe for as long as I can remember, so I knew that the capstans were the right answer.
The recipe for capstans is actually quite a complex process. You need to start with a base of olive oil, mustard, and garlic. Then you add spices, and finally you add the capstans themselves. The final product is a light sauce that can be used for a variety of dishes.
I was first introduced to capstan by my friend and fellow chef, John Atherton. The more I’ve tried capstan, the better I’ve gotten to like it. It’s a savory sauce that’s great over pasta or in other vegetable dishes. You can also use it as a sauce to garnish your meat dishes, especially roast meat.
