Flesh, pith and skin are chopped into salads, juice is drizzled over meat, fish and veggies, the aromatic zest adds a complexity to a dish’s flavour. Even the leaves are used to wrap meat, fish and cheese for extra flavour, or finely chopped and made into a tea infusion. Gennaro’s Limoni by Gennaro Contaldo is a burst of sharp recipes. Pavilion, R415, from good bookstores Let’s be honest. Is it even Summer if you’re not sipping cocktails? We’re making ours with X by Glenmorangie - a sweeter, richer single malt than the original - all swirling aromas of pear and vanilla, setting the stage for rich orange sherbet and fudge. It is delish neat, but our fave is the Glenmorangie X BBQ ... a bold serve with a kick of fiery spice. Fill a highball glass with crushed ice, add 50ml X by Glenmorangie and an equal amount of ginger beer. Stir, then squeeze three lime wedges over the drink, using them to garnish, too. From the heart of the Caribbean *said in Bob Marley voice* ... delicious Creole recipes - think Ti’ Punch, and green banana and salt fish, and mango gratin. Sunshine Kitchen by Vanessa Bolosier is full of recipes to whip up on steamy days and sultry nights. Pavilon, R216 from loot.co.za • Under Coconut Skies is a collection of dishes and stories inspired by Yasmin Newman’s time spent on Siargao and her travels to other distant regions, where bright, bold flavours are sourced from the blue, yellow, and green of the thousand islands - the sea, the sand and the trees of the Philippines. Smith Street, R740 from good bookstores • Aren’t these woven tumblers great? Hi ball options available, too. R29.99 each from Mr Price Home. • Nothing fishy going on here! This six-seater table runner has a coating that makes it splash-proof ... perfect for messy, celebratory, outdoor family meals. R650 from soilprints.co.za November 2021 Get It Magazine 19
