Building on the success of her previous books, in Good + Simple, Sarah Graham continues to celebrate an abundance of vegetables and natural, whole foods in the same simple and accessible style her loyal army of followers have come to know and love. Good + Simple is the result of learning how to live, cook and eat through a global health pandemic. For Sarah, this meant adapting to a changing daily routine, and becoming more flexible in her approach to cooking and eating. Naturally, she ended up reworking a lot of family favourites to be as fast and easy as possible, and to take up minimal time and energy. Good + Simple offers a collection of wholesome and delicious recipes for the whole family, specifically designed to be easy to achieve with simple ingredients. Covering a variety of dietary preferences and needs, simple substitutions for the occasional meat-eater, and including five-ingredient and one-pot dishes, the book makes cooking and meal planning easy, enjoyable and memorable.
Nostalgie is Herman Lensing se sewende kookboek en volg op die uiters suksesvolle Huiskos/Home Cooking in 2021, wat vir ’n Gourmand-toekenning benoem is, en Dit Proe Soos Huis (Human & Rousseau), wat in 2019 verskyn het. Herman se laaste boek in die trilogie vertel – in sy eie woorde – die storie van sy lewe tot op 36 jaar. Die eerste proe of geur van kos laat jou terugdink en verlang – dit bring Nostalgie. En om met kos ’n oorgang van die verlede na die hede te bring is vir Herman belangrik. Nostalgie is nes jy Herman se kombuis ken: Hy gebruik kos om mense te laat onthou en te verenig. Nostalgie bevat meer as 80 resepte, van bykos tot hoofgeregte; van brood tot kos uit jou yskas; van kos van die kole af tot vleisgeregte, en van vakansiekoekies tot nageregte. Elke hoofstuk weerspieël Herman se liefde vir kos en vir mense, met staaltjies waarin jy jou kan verkneukel.
Fifty unique recipes, accompanied by Xoliswa Ndoyiya’s personal recollections and anecdotes of the time she spent with Madiba. “This house was not just a house; it was a welcoming home. This hotel means a lot to me because it is still welcoming people to come and reflect on who Tata was and what he has given to people.” – Xoliswa Ndoyiya
Loorita het in Reinet en Dirk Nagtegaal se besige lewe ingestap en sonder enige omhaal hulle lewe van kantoor tot kombuis begin herorganiseer. Saam het die drie 'n passie vir kook gedeel, met die voorneme om eendag wanneer hulle aftree, saam aan 'n kookboek te werk - 'n kookboek met al die disse wat Loorieta die Nagtegaals op Melkbosstrand leer kook het. Haar resepte was meestal Grieks geïnspireerd, met 'n duidelik Suid-Afrikaanse geur. En die rede? Sy het haar hart vroeg-vroeg op 'n Griek verloor en oor die jare het sy selfs 'n groter Griek geword as hy. Die resepte hierin is enersyds die wat die Nagtegaals saam met Loorita in hul kombuis leer kook het, en dan is daar die wat hulle uit Griekeland saamgebring en tot Suid-Afrikaanse weergawes verwerk het.
An obsession with food. A nostalgia for the taste of childhood. Living in a fractured and constantly shifting city. These are the strands that Andrea Burgener weaves together to create an irresistibly quirky collection of recipes in Lampedusa Pie.

Celebrate the exuberance of a party with a bright crimson soup or the seventies nostalgia of strawberry friandise and devils on horseback. Stretch yourself to explore an Ethiopian-inspired steak tartare, an Ivorian fish or the famous Lampedusa pie. Drawing on recipes from her restaurants Superbonbon, Deluxe and The Leopard as well as the inspiration of other local and international food experiences, Andrea will take you on a journey of discovery in your own kitchen.

The Real Meal Revolution was all about taking on the global obesity epidemic with a revolutionary approach to eating; it challenged ingrained beliefs, it sold (and still sells) in record-breaking numbers throughout South Africa, and it changed people’s lives. With Raising Superheroes, the authors have now set out to revolutionise the way we feed our children. It’s time, they believe, to challenge the kids’ food industry and our old assumptions; it’s time to give our children the best nutrition possible, and the best start in life. Raising Superheroes is not a Banting cookbook, and it doesn’t offer no-carb eating for kids. But – in advocating low-sugar, low-refined-carb, “real” food eating – it is the Real Meal Revolution’s next step towards changing the world.

'Getting enough protein', 'going into fat burning', this book answers all the questions.

Following the success of African Brew, the first ever book to showcase the South African craft beer scene, beer-centric author Lucy Corne is back with a second homage to hops and grain. Beer Safari takes readers on a journey through the microbreweries of South Africa, stopping to chat to each brewer along the way. The book is laid out geographically to assist the reader in planning his or her own beer safari. Look out for the 'Big Five Pints' – the author’s pick of the very best South African craft beers. There is also space for beer aficionados to scribble their own tasting notes alongside each brewery’s beer menu. Beer Safari is the only South African beer book whose author has, in person, visited every one of the 100-plus breweries to get the brewers’ stories, photograph their often quirky brewing setups and of course, to taste their beers. Peppered between the inspiring tales of passionate brewers, are snippets of essential beer knowledge – ideal for the 'beerginner' – alongside checklists that will appeal to newbie beer drinkers and veterans alike. Whether readers are looking for family-friendly beery weekends away, the cutest brewpubs with the finest views or a list of where to go for South Africa’s hoppiest ales, Beer Safari is a comprehensive and user-friendly guide. The directory showcases everything needed to continue the beer journey – for those who prefer to enjoy other people’s wares, there are recommendations for liquor stores and bars offering a supreme selection of beer. Those who yearn to brew their own will find information on homebrewing stores, courses and clubs throughout the country. Written in Corne’s signature light-hearted style, and with a fresh, vibrant design, Beer Safari perfectly captures the exciting and unpretentious nature that characterises the South African craft beer scene.
It was predicted that when Jan Braai’s first book, Fireworks, was released in 2012 that the book would become a staple classic in the South African cooking canon. Who could have guessed that Jan and his books would become world-renowned for braai brilliance.

It’s helped that the world is no longer so kak-scared of eating bread! Find delicious chicken, beef, vegetarian and vegan braaibroodjie and burger recipes that will keep your family coming back for more!

Jan Braai’s friends have been badgering him to write a vegetarian braai book for years, and he has finally done it!

So Jan collected all his best vegetarian recipes together, and then added a whole lot more. If you’re looking for a meat-free Monday option, have to cater for your son’s new vegetarian girlfriend or the grandchildren, or have even decided to take the vegetarian plunge yourself, there’s no reason to neglect your braai – Jan has you covered.

Zola Nene has become quite a force on the South African culinary scene, yet her personal quest to show people that cooking great food needn’t be pretentious or difficult continues in her new book. Simply Delicious was a triumph and now, as Zola says herself, ‘My food journey is ever evolving and is a continuation of my life journey told through food,’ and so Simply Zola is the mouth-watering result. The dishes (and drinks) are simple to prepare and each is a taste sensation. Zola doesn’t do bland or shy, so prepare to be swept away by the likes of Barley, grape and pecan nut salad, Prawn, lemon and chilli linguini, Cola-braised beef short ribs, and Rocky road waffles with salted caramel sauce. For those of you always complaining that it’s impossible to cook properly for one, there’s a chapter devoted just to that, while the lazy among you will be cheered by a chapter of one-pot dishes. There’s even a chapter for those who want taste without the gluten.
