  • Food Safety and Informal Markets
    FOOD SAFETY AND INFORMAL MARKETS Animal products are vital components of the diets and livelihoods of people across sub-Saharan Africa. They are frequently traded in local, informal markets and this can pose significant health risks. This book presents an accessible overview of these issues in the context of food safety, zoonoses and public health, while at the same time maintaining fair and equitable livelihoods for poorer people across the continent. The book includes a review of the key issues and twenty-five case studies of the meat, milk, egg and fish food sectors drawn from a wide range of countries in East, West and southern Africa, as part of the ‘Safe Food, Fair Food’ project. It gives a realistic analysis of food safety risk by developing a methodology of ‘participatory food safety risk assessment’, involving small-scale producers and consumers in the process of data collection in the data-poor environment often found in developing countries. This approach aims to ensure market access for poor producers, while adopting a realistic and pragmatic strategy for reducing the risk of food-borne diseases for consumers. Kristina Roesel is co-ordinator of the ‘Safe Food, Fair Food’ project, based at the International Livestock Research Institute, Nairobi, Kenya, and also a doctorate candidate at the Free University, Berlin, Germany. Delia Grace is Program Leader, Food Safety and Zoonoses, Integrated Sciences, at the International Livestock Research Institute, Nairobi, Kenya.

    University of Buxton, Derby ITM-IHM Oshiwara, Mumbai 2012-2013 SOUTH AFRICAN CUISINE Course Coordinators: Veena Picardo Sanket Gore Submitted by: Prasad Chavan (OSH2012GD-CA2F006) Mahi Baid (OSH2012BA-CA2F014) 1 Contents South Africa and its Food 3 Sunny South Africa 4 History 6 The Rainbow Cuisine 8 South Africa Celebrates 12 Braai and PotJiekos 13 Tourism and South African Delights 14 The Story of the Cultures 15 Bibliography 16 2 SOUTH AFRICA AND ITS FOOD South Africa cannot be defined as a singular culture. The centuries of colonization have rendered it so rich in diversity that now all the disarray in heritage has aligned itself to make it a unique country. The acceptance of the distinct heritages by people of the country does not comply with the discrimination of the apartheid that the country suffered for so long. But today, South Africa has a lot of culture to show and many experiences to share. The Braai and the Potjiekos express the affection for meat; the Atjars and the Sambals show the appreciation of flavour; the Pap shows how a South African loves a hearty meal; and the homebrewed beer reflect upon the importance of social activity for a South African. The country maybe associated with wild life sanctuaries and political convolutedness, but it has many more stories to tell, and many a palates to unveil. The tastes of the country reflect its history and demonstrate the way in which this complicated web of cultures was built. But like a snowflake, South Africa makes this “Rainbow culture” seem natural and yet intriguing, exceptional in all senses of the word.

    FOR A LITTLE POT, IT SURE HAS QUITE THE STORY TO TELL.

HOW TO STORE YOUR POT: Always wash it with warm water, dish-washing liquid and a scouring pad. Make sure to dry it properly after washing it because if you don’t, it will rust. It is a good idea to store it with crumpled up newspaper inside – the paper will gather unwanted moisture and keep it from rusting. Always rinse the pot before you use it again. HOW TO BREAK IN YOUR POT: To prepare a potjie for cooking the following steps are recommended: Wash inside thoroughly with boiling water and a scouring pad/steel wool and dry over heat.
