"This cookery book is the first of its kind.  It is a fusion of traditional Aboriginal preparative techniques, Australian bush foods and contemporary cooking methods.  These are the beginnings of an Australian culinary tradition which is unique to this country because it is based on indigenous ingredients and identifiably Australian flavours.
The dishes presented have been designed to introduce a range of bushfoods to Australians cooking at home for a backyard barbeque or for that special dinner.  The recipes have all been tested and are easily reproducible or can be used as ideas for your own bush food creations.  The ingredients used are those more commonly available through a wide and growing range of retail outlets and readers are encouraged to contact Bush Tucker Supply Australia in Sydney for their nearest retailer."
