Jardine - Cooking With An Accent (Paperback)

Eat Out Award-winning chef George Jardine offers some of the recipes that have drawn guests and requests for almost a decade. His fabulous eatery on Jordan Wine Estate in Stellenbosch, and the suppliers and practices that keep him at the top of the ratings are explored in his first eponymous book: Jardine: Cooking with an Accent.

In the pages of Jardine, George has looked back over his award-studded time as a cook in South Africa and compiled a collection of recipes which defines his style as a chef. Many of them are the very dishes which keep his fans and regulars flooding back to his restaurant. He has kept nothing back, providing complete recipes which he handed out to friends and restaurant regulars to test at home before including them in Jardine.

Each recipe, photographed beautifully by Russel Wasserfall, contributes to this stunning volume that serves both as an insight into the skill of a talented chef and as a memoir for regular visitors to his restaurant.

Whether it is mushrooms gathered in a local forest, guavas from the tree in the garden, or fish caught in our oceans, Jardine is filled with recipes that explore the culinary bounty of Mzansi.
