About me
Found this site looking for recipes for chorizo and salami and hopefully to utilise some of my venison I live in the small town of Kokstad (South Africa) on the border between the provinces of KwaZulu/Natal and Eastern Cape. I'm trained as an agriculturalist and have spent the last few years developing a no-tillage system of mealie (maize / corn) production for the small scale farmers. I have always liked cooking and baking but very much an intermediate cook. I can read a recipe book like a novel. I however have to control myself from buying too many of the things. There are some that I have neveer prepared a single dish from. Having been raised on a farm, we have always hunted and slaughtered which has lead me to an interest in doing things with as much as possible of the animal. My first target will be to focus of the traditional braai (barbeque) . A braai in South Africa is a "ritual" and not just a meal.

Yes, Kleinemonde is my home. We moved here from Joburg - what an improvement. I work online. I know Bathurst well - lovely little town. Had no idea there was a research station. Interesting.


Hi Werner.. I am so sorry to be so long in getting back,
I have been working on my my auction site today and not
over here at all..(although I wanted to be:)
I would recommend another recipe for our dills and I will search for you one. I will find out how the term 'bread n butter' pickle came about..it is DELICIOUS..sweet. but you will notice only crisp and delicious!! I am sure the term BnB is country though. Let me see where me research takes me..! So glad you are
me' friend! :)


Hi there! Thanks for your kind comments regarding my pastry recipe.

The venison sounds like the makings of a great pie!

You might want to prebake the bottom crust before you add the filling. This will prevent sogginess in the finished pie.
Please let me know how it works out for you! Elaine :+D


Hi! Welcome to the site. Thanks for looking at my "Vetkoek" recipe. An easier way to make this is to buy ready made bread dough at your local shop, roll it out on a lightly floured surface, not too thin. Cut in rectangular shapes, not too big. Heat up oil. Put rectangular in the hot oil and spoon some of the oil on top of the Vetkoek. You will see how it puffs up! Enjoy.


Welcome to the site and thanks for being my cooking friend.

I have always wondered how this is made! Certainly not too healthy but I'll try it on a day I feel wicked :-)

Love this. I like this. Think I will top with some marshmallows, too. Make it more sinful.
