Beautiful colour pictures of Australia.
This magnificent oversized coffee table volume is a must for the Australia-phile, traveller and adventurous chef.
The book is unused but with some minor damage to the dust jacket. Australia is blessed with a broad range of climates and terrains, a rich diversity that encourages its residents to stock their kitchens with items from all corners: fresh produce and artisan cheeses from Victoria, apples and seafood from the island of Tasmania, rice and wines from New South Wales, beef and tropical fruits from Queensland, Native Bush foods from the Northern Territory , and olives and game from South Australia. The result is a cuisine that is ecclectic, eccentric, exotic and refined. In this exceptional book you will find recipes that reflect a culinary mosaic drawing from Northern Europe, the Mediterranean and Southeast Asia. Australia's native flora and fauna are showcased--from akudjura to quandong to emu to crocodile to kangaroo to wattleseed. All this with evocative photographs that jump off the full color pages that bring you on a scenic journey through a nation and a continent reknowned for its natural beauty and endlessless intriguing contrasts!
