Culinary Uses

The Khoe-Khoe were very clever when it came to making and finding things to use as food.  Fynbos is one of the things we use today as a  culinary use.  Most Fynbos can be used to make different herbal teas, which are very good for helping to cure sicknesses.  The bulbs from Arum Lilies have also been used to make a bread.  This plant is poisonous so the bulb has to be boiled in water for a few days and only then can the bread-like plant be eaten.
