This year, finding the Local is Lekker moniker somewhat overused, they\u2019ve turned it on it\u2019s head \u2026 so we\u2019re talking Local Isn\u2019t Lekker \u2013 Local is Delicious \u2026 or Zesty, Spicy or Hearty \u2026 maybe even Local is Moreishley-Sweet.<\/h4>\n<p>Some of the trends the bookstore is seeing, when it comes to cookbooks, is that cooking nowadays is all about conscious eating. Plant-based diets continue to be a hot trend in food (hello Mokgadi Itsweng\u2019s <strong>Veggie Licious<\/strong>), as are food choices relating to lifestyle (<strong>think Living the Ultimate Keto Lifestyle<\/strong> by Hendrik Marais). One of the most heartwarming trends in local cookbooks is how ordinary people are getting into the kitchen (an exceptional example is Sinoyolo Sifo, who, in <strong>Sifo The Cooking Husband<\/strong>, breaks gender stereotyple and challenges who exactly belongs in the kitchen!).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-21837 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/1-Klein-Jan-321x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"321\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/1-Klein-Jan-321x400.jpg 321w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/1-Klein-Jan-696x867.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/1-Klein-Jan-337x420.jpg 337w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/1-Klein-Jan.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 321px) 100vw, 321px\" \/><br \/>\nFor our top choice in the books on the Tasty Reads list, we unashamedly went directly, and very greedily, to Jan Hendrik van der Westhuizen and his memoir of the tables from his childhood and his journey to the Kalahari with <strong>Klein Jan Cookbook<\/strong>. Klein Jan started off as a rough sketch on a paper serviette in a small eaterie in Cape Town (the serviette now framed and hanging in Jan\u2019s office), and ended as a elegant, fine dining restaurant in the Kalahari in Boscia House \u2013 built almost a century ago and kept, with Jan\u2019s care and thoughfulness, almost as she was, just gently restored. And the cookbook is so much more than just that \u2026 it\u2019s page after glorious page of images not just of food, but of family memories and Kalahari scenes \u2026 of the restaurant, and of wind pumps and antiquated reservoirs, of kitchens and landscapes, of grasslands and big South African skies, and of all the treasures to be found in the desert earth.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-21839 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/2-Restaurant-349x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"349\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/2-Restaurant-349x400.jpg 349w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/2-Restaurant-893x1024.jpg 893w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/2-Restaurant-768x881.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/2-Restaurant-1340x1536.jpg 1340w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/2-Restaurant-696x798.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/2-Restaurant-1068x1225.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/2-Restaurant-366x420.jpg 366w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/2-Restaurant.jpg 1786w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 349px) 100vw, 349px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And then, of course, there are Jan\u2019s recipes. There are some that are going to take time, and a little effort, and won\u2019t be to everyone\u2019s taste\u2026 Skilpadjies with pickled cabbage and curry tripe, for example. And Pofadder with whipped feta, which includes lamb kidneys and livers and pig casing and is only for those not offal-shy. But then there are dozens and dozens of recipes that you\u2019ll just use over and over \u2026 from the Stoep Drinks and Small Bites chapters (Mampoer Cocktail with peach jelly alongside Klein Spek Souttertjies before your next braai), to the preserved peaches and salted lemons and Tsama Melon Konfyt, proper roasted pumpkin soup and the quintessential South African bread Mosbolletjies. There are glorious dinner party mains (the stunning kudu fillet stuffed with venison sausage and red wine), and more casual braai options (jaffles with biltong and cheese \u2026 such a hit!).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-21864 size-large aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/3-stoep-drinks-1-1024x592.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"402\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/3-stoep-drinks-1-1024x592.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/3-stoep-drinks-1-400x231.jpg 400w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/3-stoep-drinks-1-768x444.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/3-stoep-drinks-1-696x402.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/3-stoep-drinks-1-1068x617.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/3-stoep-drinks-1-727x420.jpg 727w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/3-stoep-drinks-1.jpg 1350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/>Sides are followed by sauces and stocks and savoury butters, then puds and desserts and<br \/>\nbakes \u2013 milk tart and rooibos cr\u00e8me caramel and buttermilk rusks.

Our highlight \u2026 the chocolate-hazelnut condesnsed milk ice cream (do you notice a theme going on here) which, like Jan\u2019s, doesn\u2019t need an ice-cream machine.
