A Taste of South Africa with the Kosher Butcher’s Wife is out now from Penguin Random House!

After highly successful outings with her first two books, Sharon Lurie, aka the Kosher Butcher’s Wife, decided that it was time to make it official and combine the influences of her culinary inheritance, i.e. cooking kosher as a proud South African.

As she says, South African cuisine is as deliciously diverse as its inhabitants, from the many indigenous peoples to the waves of immigrants and settlers who have made the southern part of Africa their home.

In her latest book, A Taste of South Africa with the Kosher Butcher’s Wife, Sharon takes the home cook on an adventure encompassing many of the country’s diverse and iconic dishes, including traditional South African food with a Jewish twist.

This book not only includes meat and non-dairy recipes but mouth-watering dairy dishes to dive into. And in her imitable style, Sharon will keep you laughing along the way.
