This Indigenous Cafe is making Australian Ingredients Mainstream in Melbourne

When people think of Australian food, meat pies and Vegemite come to mind. The truth is, Indigenous Australians have been baking bread and cultivating and harvesting native ingredients for more than 60,000 years. With a dark history of colonialism and displacement, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island knowledge of native foods is at risk of disappearing. Thankfully people like Nornie Bero are sharing ancient ingredients in modern restaurant and cafe settings. All we have to do is eat, listen and learn.

Nornie's laugh and sense of humour is so infectious, isn't it? Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for letting me know.

In Europe, Amsterdam, I am not able to find the ingredients, probably, so can I buy the cookbook here, and cook from it with alternative ingredients?.

Damper wasn't Aboriginal as it used wheat, as this lady is using in the video. Bush bread made by Aboriginals uses seeds from the bush which was crushed down. She is actually making bread made by English Bushman who used flour they brought into Australia. I would be really keen to try some Bush bread
