Book excerpt: Anyone who longs for a beloved grandmother’s famous milk tart or melkkos, or a great aunt’s delicious bobotie or vetkoek, should have this book in his or her kitchen! Traditional South African Cooking is a collection of well-known South African recipes that will enable the modern cook to continue the tradition and produce the same delicious meals that our ancestors used to enjoy. South African cuisine is a unique blend of the culinary art of many different cultures. Dutch, French, German and British settlers, as well as the Malays who came from the East, all brought their own recipes to this country. The subtle adaptation of these ‘imported’ recipes by the addition of local ingredients and the introduction of innovative (at the time) cooking methods resulted in an original and much-loved cuisine. This book also features interesting snippets about our forebears’ way of life.

Book excerpt: 2018 James Beard Foundation Book of the Year | 2018 James Beard Foundation Book Award Winner inWriting | Nominee for the 2018 Hurston/Wright Legacy Award in Nonfiction | #75 on The Root100 2018 A renowned culinary historian offers a fresh perspective on our most divisive cultural issue, race, in this illuminating memoir of Southern cuisine and food culture that traces his ancestry—both black and white—through food, from Africa to America and slavery to freedom. Southern food is integral to the American culinary tradition, yet the question of who "owns" it is one of the most provocative touch points in our ongoing struggles over race. In this unique memoir, culinary historian Michael W. Twitty takes readers to the white-hot center of this fight, tracing the roots of his own family and the charged politics surrounding the origins of soul food, barbecue, and all Southern cuisine. From the tobacco and rice farms of colonial times to plantation kitchens and backbreaking cotton fields, Twitty tells his family story through the foods that enabled his ancestors’ survival across three centuries. He sifts through stories, recipes, genetic tests, and historical documents, and travels from Civil War battlefields in Virginia to synagogues in Alabama to Black-owned organic farms in Georgia. As he takes us through his ancestral culinary history, Twitty suggests that healing may come from embracing the discomfort of the Southern past. Along the way, he reveals a truth that is more than skin deep—the power that food has to bring the kin of the enslaved and their former slaveholders to the table, where they can discover the real America together.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Champion of South African home cooking, Errieda du Toit set out to write a cookbook about the food we most love to eat and the culture of sharing these recipe in community cookbooks. Intrigued by our strong attachment to these dog-eared, food-stained recipe collections, she pored over 150 titles spanning a century. SHARE is her tribute to this humble culinary source and a celebration of its collaborative spirit. It’s the first book to deal specifically with the genre, exploring our intimate relationship with these unassuming little books and their role in shaping food culture. The result is a delightful, quirky and thoroughly modern homage to the genre, tapping into our food memories in a unique way. SHARE features a wide selection of recipes as generous, gracious and welcoming as the home cooks who shared them. They’re all here: the keepers (recipes known for their longevity); the never-fails (those epic recipes that never let you down); communal food for come-on-overs; as well as retro classics alongside those defining dishes and bakes treasured as heritage food. Bringing visual expression to Errieda’s vision of bringing community cookbooks out of the dark corner of food literature, SHARE is beautifully photographed by Errieda’s husband Ian du Toit. The witty styling by Hannes Koegelenberg and creative book design by Marcus Viljoen further capture the character and off-beat traits of the genre. With the right blend of nostalgia, modern revival of old-school recipes and captivating story-telling, SHARE is for home cooks, cookbook collectors and anyone curious and enthusiastic about South African food.
