Hello from my kitchen in Copenhagen,

I am delighted to welcome Gerhardus Geldenhuis and Lihle Tanai Mahambehlala to co-host our upcoming kitchen lab, Two Ways of Home: Cooking from South African Traditions. Cooking live from South Africa, they’ll prepare three traditional dishes while sharing personal stories and reflections on food, culture, and home.

Those who joined us for this year’s Food and the Elements weekend at St. Catherine’s in Oxford will remember Lihle and her team from the creative Sunday lunch, An Exploration of Modern Humors Through Food, mentored by Jennie Moran.

Gerhardus, OFS member and valued contributor, joins her for this session on November 18th—two cooks, two perspectives and a shared sense of home.
