New African Cookbook
A number of years ago Sean Fitzpartick and I, posted our first blog with noble intentions of producing a cookbook filled with not only African recipes but to take a fresh look at the African eating experience. From the onset the journey was incredible- not without risks and obstacles, but outnumbered by inspiring counter- moments.
The fruits of our labour became “Het Nieuw Afrikaans Kookboekâ€, a translated version of our manuscript The New African Cookbook, produced with Kenyan writer Carole Keingati and graphic designer Penina Njuguna. We are very proud of the results!
“Opening someone’s kitchen cupboard is like shining a light on their deepest secrets. It reveals not only recipes, but family feuds, political ties and hidden desires…†all hints at what it means to be African.â€
