Om die Weskus hierdie feestyd op \u2019n vars manier te ervaar, is \u2019n langtafel-strandete saam met die baasbraaier Kobus Botha net die ding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Di\u00e9 beoordelaar van Kokkedoor Vuur & Vlam<\/span> is hier tot in Januarie om op spesifieke dae vars, seisoenale seekos-lekkernye sommer op die strand in Saldanha te maak. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hy het die afgelope Saterdag (7 Desember) sy vernuftige kunsies aan \u2019n groep gaste gewys. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Met al sy jare ondervinding in Frankryk laat hy dit maklik lyk om iets gewoons soos mossels op die Franse manier gaar te maak \u2013 deur dit onder \u2019n paar lae dennenaalde te pak wat aan die brand gesteek word. Die uiteinde is \u2019n kulin\u00eare smaaksensasie bekend as L\u2019\u00e9clade de moule<\/i> \u2013 mossels met \u2019n rokerige geur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kobus wys na die stuk strand voor die ou Shell-motorhawe in Hoofstraat (tussen Cup of Cake en die Saldanha-hotel) as die Weskus se \u201cBoere-Bahamas\u201d, kompleet met grasafdakkies en sagte stoele.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die disse op Kobus se spyskaart word een vir een gemaak terwyl die gaste om hom staan en kyk en hy staaltjies vertel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Verwag \u2019n l\u00e1ng middagete (long lunch<\/i>), want hier word nie kortpaadjies gevat nie \u2013 net uitstekende bestanddele, gebraai op unieke maniere. Kobus se bynaam is nie verniet Kobus Braai nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buiten die oesters wat rou \u2013 soos dit moet \u2013 ge\u00ebet word en die gerookte mossels, word gaste getrakteer op geelstertvel wat bros oor die kole gebraai is \u2013 seekos se varkkaiings. \u2019n Mens sal maklik \u2019n bak van di\u00e9 lekkerny kon verorber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kobus maak sy eie geurige boere-baisse<\/i> gebaseer op \u2019n bekende Mediterreense sop, Bouillabaisse<\/i>. Dit is \u2019n Franse vissop met \u2019n tamatiebasis wat met \u2019n wye verskeidenheid seekos en skulpvis gemaak word. Vir Kobus se weergawe gebruik hy die koppe van snoek, Jacopever, wit stompneus en bokkoms. Die uiteinde is \u2019n geurige sop wat oor \u2019n stukkie suurdeegbrood met aioli<\/i>, \u2019n romerige, knoffelgegeurde mayonnaise-sous, ge\u00ebet word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2019n Smaaklike, sagte seekatgereg is voorgesit met inheemse Weskus-herebone. Die meeste gaste het twee keer gaan skep. Die smaaklike hoofdis \u2013 vars, gebraaide geelstert met kaas-kapokaartappels gemaak van Sandveld-aartappels \u2013 is \u2019n besondere kopknik na die Weskus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die laaste dis op die smaakkragtoer was \u2019n Europese spitkoek met rum, \u2019n g\u00e2teau \u00e0 la broche<\/i>. Die beslag van di\u00e9 koek word laag vir laag op \u2019n silindriese roterende spit oor \u2019n oop vuur gebraai. Die spitkoek, wat oor die algemeen met vieringe soos troues en Kersfees geassosieer word, is met moerkoffie voorgesit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Di\u00e9 kosavontuur en eetbelewenis is die hoogtepunt van \u2019n droom van Aldi en Cornelia Badenhorst van A.A. Badenhorst Family Wines buite Malmesbury. Hulle het die ou motorhaweperseel gekoop, dit gerestoureer en verlede jaar met \u2019n wynveiling ingewy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benewens die gesellighede wat al daar gehou is, bevat die perseel ook hul sjerrie-verouderingskelder. Volgens Aldi bied Saldanhabaai die perfekte weer dit te doen. Hul wyne, borrels, port en sjerrie word saam met Kobus se disse voorgesit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die middagetes begin om 13:30 en die eerste een word hierdie Sondag (15 Desember) gehou. Besprekings is noodsaaklik en deelname word tot 40 mense beperk. Bespreek jou eie eksklusiewe ete by kobusbraai@ gmail.com of vir bestaande datums gaan na www.dineplan.com\/restaurants\/kobus-botha-at-the-saldanha-wine-and-spirit-co. <\/a>Die ervaring is nie geskik vir kinders onder 12 jaar nie.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
