Shake it up with a seasoning​

September is Heritage Month, and what better way to celebrate than by lighting a braai fire! Our range of Seasonings add balanced flavour to any grilled food. Best of all is that they are a healthy choice – preservative-free, gluten-free and contain no artificial enhancers like MSG.​

Tell us, which of our seasonings do you use when you braai?​​

Steak, served as a salad​

You don’t always need to serve expensive individual steaks with chips or heavy starches! Try this lighter option: steak strips with grilled corn on a bed of lettuce, drizzled with our Balsamic Vinaigrette. The perfect high-protein, light lunch for a group of 4–6.​

What kind of wood should I choose for my braai?​

Choose dry, hard wood to make a hot fire that will burn down to long-lasting coals. Here are 4 types of wood that South Africans prefer for a braai:​

- Kameeldoring: very hard and dense, naturally dry, long burn time, minimal smoke​

- Sekelbos: very hard, burns intensely, long burning, minimal smoke (invasive species = good braai choice)​

- Rooikrans: Western Cape favourite, medium density, easier to light, good heat retention, requires proper drying (invasive species = good braai choice)​

- Black Wattle: ignites easily, bright flames with minimal smoke, retains heat for 1–1.5 hours, minimal ash clean-up (invasive species = good braai choice)​

Opt for ostrich​

South African ostrich is one of the best meat options you can choose for your braai – it’s high in protein but low in fat. But take care not to overcook it, aim for medium-rare for the best results. Skewer cubes of meat with sweet peppers and onions, then baste with olive oil and our Portuguese Peri-Peri Flavour Bomb on the braai. So simple, but huge in flavour!​

What’s the No. 1 (unwritten) braai rule in South Africa? ​

Never tell the host how to braai, or when to flip food on the grid. Whoever is braaing makes the call, even if you might have done it differently! ​

What are your top braai rules? ​

𝗔 𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗼𝗰𝗰𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻

Make this show-stopping vegetarian Mushroom and Onion Tart using store-bought puff pastry (or Ina's popular Sour Cream Pastry, if you have the time). After blind-baking the pastry, top it with caramelised onions, cheese sauce, and whole mushrooms before another stint in the oven. Beautiful to look at, but even better to eat!
