Interest in bush foods is booming. From Warrigal greens and saltbush to
kangaroo and yabbies, more and more growers' markets and local
supermarkets are stocking these foods, and restaurants are serving them
on their menus.
Cooking With the Oldest Foods on Earth - winner of the 2020 Gourmand
Award for Innovation - shows you how to cook with bush foods, where to
find them and how to grow them. Organised by ingredient, each chapter
includes a brief history, a practical guide, and recipes for you to make
in your very own kitchen. Now updated, including new recipes, Cooking
With the Oldest Foods on Earth promises to broaden Australians' culinary
horizons in every way.
