Angel Hair With Feta And Capers

One of our simplest pasta preparations with a big, bold taste. If you can, buy feta cheese from a specialty cheese shop rather than your supermarket. Not only will you have many more varieties to choose from, but the feta will be less salty. Good feta has a mild salty flavor that does not overpower.
