Popular tradition has it that the term caponata derives from & quot; capone & quot ;, a name that is used in some areas of Sicily to refer to the lampuga, a fish with fine meats, but very dry served above all on the tables of the rich and seasoned with the typical sauce. bitter-sweet. Unable to afford it, the people replaced expensive fish with cheaper eggplants. The Caponata has become famous all over the world thanks to the activity begun in 1869 by an ancient family of canneries from Palermo. It was industrially produced in the ancient factory in Corso Tukory in Palermo (still visible today but in disuse), canned in cans made and welded by hand, and since then it has been widespread, marketed and appreciated by consumers from various parts of the world, in particular in America where the Sicilian emigrants were happy to taste again the flavor of their tradition.
