>No standard spoon can fit inside the narrow openings of the typical glass caper jar.

Use a fork which strains away the brine too so you don’t get a wet situation happening

Teaspoons are narrower than forks -- if a fork fits in, then so would a normal teaspoon.

This amuses me because I tend to use a fork even though I have spoons that can fit in my jars specifically to strain off the brine. I usually use capers to make salmon and cream cheese bagels, and I don't like drippy bagels.
