GUTEN APPETIT by Gillian Vernon and Gabrielle Schuch

GUTEN APPETIT  

by Gillian Vernon and Gabrielle Schuch

Recipes and traditions from the German Community of the Eastern Cape

Guten Appetit was compiled by Gillian Vernon and Gabrielle Schuch in 1996 with drawings by Ian Vincent. This is the Second Impression (2019) with fresh typesetting, many colour illustrations. The book is wire-bound to make it an easy reference source.

Once opened, back to yesteryear you go, where families and neighbours gathered together to celebrate special occasions. The preparations, enjoyment and entertainment made for lasting memories!

Some traditional home remedies are provided as well as a brief background to a fascinating German heritage in the Eastern Cape province of South Africa - now nearly forgotten.

Travels, hardships and successes in an unfavourable land. Not only is it a must read - It is a must keep!. Start sharing memories today and purchase your copy of Guten Appetit!
