Tony Jackman: Retro Karoo Food, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

In every part of every old Karoo house are the memories of things thathappened there. Their front doors are portals to the mysteries that liewithin, the lives that have been lived there and the stories that havehappened in their wide rooms with their wooden floors. Retro Karoo Food brings together 80 recipes from author, food writerand playwright Tony Jackman's Karoo kitchen, made with love in the spiritof the old Garob. Some are traditional, others adapted, and yet others hisown invention: from skilpadjies, boontjiesop and tomato bredie to gingerchicken roasted in a potjie and parmesan gem squash; there is Japie segunsteling, Karoo ice creams and prickly pear syrup... Jackman alsorevisits cookery classics by C Louis Leipoldt, S. J.A. de Villiers and others, tracking down the histories and variations of dishes such aswaterblommetjiebredie, hoenderpastei and tipsy tart. There are no trends in this book - no spheres, blobs, smears or passingfads. This is a throwback, a cookbook that distils those genuine, old SouthAfrican recipes all in one place. If you're a South African at home orabroad, a tourist wanting a taste of local cuisine or simply looking forclassics for a midweek supper, braai or dinner party, this is for you.
