I was invited to attend a Boerewors Judge Training Session at the SA Chefs' Association last week and here is Jeff Schueremans, the Chief Judge, opening the training session. A number of people asked why I wasn't entering and the reason I gave was that Shoprite/Checkers, if you win, take your recipe and then they would need to adjust it for commercial production by adding some of the things I mentioned in last week's article. I hope you noticed that I'm assuming that I would win out of the thousands of entries! Unlikely! For more about the experience look at my weekly column, Hot Potato in Newstime as I am writing about it this coming Friday under the heading "For Better for Wors".

It's quite a busy week as tonight I will be chatting about sausages to Mimi Jardim's Portuguese Cookery Group....more about that next week........and on Thursday a talk to the SA Military History Society on the dramatic changes in food preservation in the 19th century that were really driven by the Prussian and French armies.
Bacon
The demand for our bacon seems to be growing and it looks as if a retail outlet may bravely stock it. If that is the case I will let you know next week. Certainly the restaurants that use it give me very good feedback and they also prefer the streaky though they have to stock back bacon for some customers! If you haven't tried our bacon just click here to try some.
Website
There will be some changes to the website in the next week to update our stock, amongst other things.
