South Africa: Simple Pleasures


By My Kind of Cooking (Visit website)



South African's love their tea!  They serve black tea with warm milk and sugar.  When I first went there 12 years ago, I hated it.  By the end of our two week stay, I was hooked.  I loved the teas so much; when I got home I purchased a Mrs. Tea machine so I could brew the perfect cup of tea.  I now have a cup of this delicious tea almost every morning.



I love the yogurt!  It has double the cream of our yogurt here in the good old USA.  The consistency is thick and creamy, almost like a custard.  Is is also filled with big chunks of juicy fruit.  I started almost everyday with yogurt topped with Muesli Crunch and a mince cup of tea.



Grapetiser, oh how I love thee!  There are white and red Grapetisers.  They also make Appletiser and Peartisers.  I love them all!  They are a carbonated fruit drink.  Light and refreshing.  A great alternative to soda pop.

Melktart or as we call it Milk Tart, is the dessert of South Africa.  My husband loves this dessert!  It has a custard like filling with a sweet crust.  On Friday, I will be posting the recipe.


Our friends in South Africa love Biltong.  It seemed like everywhere we went, people were asking if we had tried it.  Biltong is a dried jerky kind of product.  It is lightly spiced and has a high fat content.  I did not like it.  It was too fatty for me.  But if you visit South Africa give it a try.
