I love the capers in rock salt. I‘m out and will have to make a trip to Met Market to resupply.

If you're looking for a substitute for capers in a recipe, there are a few options you can consider depending on the flavor profile you're trying to achieve.
Olives: Kalamata olives or green olives can provide a similar briny and tangy flavor that capers offer. Chop them finely or use them whole as a substitute.
Pickles: Pickles, especially dill pickles or cornichons, can be a suitable substitute for capers. Chop them into small pieces or use them whole, depending on your preference.
Green Peppercorns: If you're looking for a milder alternative, green peppercorns can work well. They have a subtle tanginess that can add a unique flavor to your dish.
Lemon Zest: In some recipes, lemon zest can provide a hint of acidity and brightness similar to capers. Finely grate the zest of a lemon and use it as a substitute.
Ultimately, the decision to substitute or omit capers from a recipe depends on your personal preference and the overall flavor profile you're aiming for. Feel free to experiment with these alternatives and adjust the quantities based on your taste preferences.
