Setswana dishes had everyone salivating

In 2007 Botswanacraft in collaboration with the then Department of Youth and Culture published its first edition of Botswana Traditional Recipes, which were taken directly from the dishes served during Letlhafula celebration.

Last Wednesday, Botswanacraft hosted a cuisine sampling of dishes to be published in the second edition of Traditional Food Recipe book. From morning the Botswanacraft backyard was a hive of activity with chefs, from different hotels, and home economics teachers preparing their authentic recipes in the big three-legged pots (poto), popularly used for cooking at big Setswana social events like patlo, and weddings, amongst others.
