Okay then, so there you sit, far away from home and dream about Biltong and a Castle, or maybe some RSA wine with Boerewors.  Well whatever it is here are a load of links to help you.  Most of us are happy to fork out some moola for treats from home so there are links to businesses selling SA goodies, just be sure to shop around as there is no harm in getting the best price and quality.  I have links to places to visit out of nostalgia, sites that remind you of the foods and drinks you left behind.  Then there are links to places dealing in booze (mostly wine) and for some reason guys think this is important.   For those just looking for something to read to remind them of home, or a way to explain our foods to others, well then there are links to places to find more information on South African foods.  Finally, arguably the greatest treasure you can find from home are the recipes, those wonderful dishes that you grew up with, so here are some links to hordes of sites with recipes Also remember that I only find these thinks, I in no way endorse or recommend any of the web sites below.

Buying SA foods where you are:

There are some sites that sell RSA food, but before we cover that I must point out that there are many out there selling RSA foods but most of them do not have their own web site, including some of the best priced ones I have found so far.  I also have a forum where you can add a South African oriented business or see those that have been added. Here are some to try.

Recipes to feed the soul

Finally, have you forgotten how to cook traditional RSA food?  Don't know how mom made that special dish.  Well then visit one of these, but just remember that there are things that change the way recipes work, things like different water, different meat, different quality ingredients, different sea levels and so on.  You may need to experiment a little with one or two of these, though most will be fine.
