LESLEY’S CRAYFISH SALAD
Extract from Life on a table by Antoinette De Chavonnes Vrugt[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
Our dear friends Lesley and Gerrit Wyma live in Stellenbosch, South Africa. They are the owners of Cape Hutton Wines, which have won many international awards. We spend quality time together when they visit us on the farm every six weeks. Lesley makes this crayfish salad with its wonderfully fresh and clean taste.
