With black butter and capers? Well staged and photographed. Looks like a clever use of wallpaper for the background?

Thanks for your comments.
No black butter or capers. They are juniper berries and cardamon pods.
I constructed the background in Photoshop some years ago. I have about 20 different color versions of it.

Thank you for responding! Haven't been able to get Juniper berries in years, and I have only ever used ground cardamom. I thought they were dark for capers!

https://www.penzeys.com/online-catalog/juniper-berries/c-24/p-1353/pd-s and https://www.penzeys.com/online-catalog/cardamom-green-pods/c-24/p-1226/pd-s
if you can't find them locally.
Penzey's has white and black cardamom pods as well. I try to avoid using ground because once you open the jar, the flavor dissipates in a couple of months. The pods are still good after a couple of years. And you can toast them for even more flavor - but this is true for most seed or pod based spices.
