Cooking with the Oldest Foods on Earth Summary

Cooking with the Oldest Foods on Earth: Australian Bush Foods Recipes and Sources Updated Edition by John Newton

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.

This short companion book to the award-winning The Oldest Foods on Earth shows you how to cook with Australian ingredients, 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.

This updated edition includes brand new recipes from First Nations chefs and an updated resources section with nurseries and suppliers. It promises to broaden Australians' culinary horizons in every way.
