Recipe Book: A Touch of Rooibos

Rooibos Ltd has launched its cookbook – A touch of Rooibos – in February 2009. What makes this book unique is that 14 of South Africa’s top chefs contributed recipes in which they use Rooibos as an ingredient to show its versatility in cooking.

A touch of Rooibos features 104 recipes covering categories such as soups, starters, main dishes, side dishes, desserts, cakes, drinks and marinades. The wide variety makes this collection perfect for both food connoisseurs and aspiring cooks.

Gerda de Wet, Rooibos Ltd’s Communication Manager, said: “Rooibos has defined itself as a great basic ingredient, whether it is used for marinating, poaching, sauces or delectable toppings. This book confirms South Africa’s famous indigenous tea’s place in the culinary arena.”

The book is available in English (A touch of Rooibos) and Afrikaans (‘n Tikkie Rooibos). It can be ordered from sales@rooibosltd.co.za
