ESTABLISHED 2011 – HANDMADE IN SOUTH AFRICA
Small Batch Artisan Pestos & Preserves
Handmade in South Africa using the finest seasonal ingredients.
From our kitchen
A few of our favourites
Every jar is stirred, tasted and filled by hand in small batches, so nothing sits around waiting to be sold.
Why Klein Begin?
🌿
Fresh Ingredients
We buy seasonally and make to order, so what is in the jar is what was good that week.
🫙
Small Batch
Made in batches small enough to taste as we go, and to start again if it is not right.
❤️
Handmade
No production line. Every batch is mixed, filled and labelled by hand.
🚜
Local Produce
South African growers and suppliers, for produce that has not spent a month in transit.
The shelf
Shop by kitchen
While it lasts
Seasonal & small runs
Some things we can only make when the produce is right. When a batch is gone, it is gone until next season.
Put a jar to work
Recipes
Weeknight suppers and slow Sunday lunches, each one built around something we make.
Roast Vegetables with Dippy Spread
A tray of roast vegetables, and a spoonful of something soft and herby to finish it.
Cowboy Candy Burgers
The one that converts people. Sweet heat against melted cheese.
Beetroot Chutney and Goat’s Cheese Toasts
Five minutes, three ingredients, and it looks like you tried.
