Cooking with Gas
Jean Nel
Jacana Media
Jean Nel, author of best seller Braai the Beloved Country, has been cooking on open fires for as long as he can remember. The outdoors is his favourite place to cook. He admits to being a purist but when he started catering he had no option but to turn to gas, something he knows many consider sacrilege.
In Cooking with Gas he shares his skills and the tricks you need in order to cook perfectly on gas, using both direct and indirect cooking methods. Whether you’re searing a lamb tjop, cooking on a salt-block or a plank, this is the book you need if you have a gas braai. Recipes are included for fish, meat and veggie dishes.
Catch Jean at his “Flamed” stall at the Stellenbosch Slow Market on Saturdays.
We have two copies of Cooking with Gas to give away online, courtesy of Jacana Media. To enter sms “Flamed” to 34445 between 6am Friday and 8pm on Sunday 16 August.
