Description
Discover how geography, history, and culture have shaped food of the “land down under.”
Part of The Global Kitchen series, this book takes readers on a food tour of Australia, covering everything from daily staples to holiday specialties. In addition to discovering Australia's long culinary history, readers will learn about recent trends, foreign influences, and contemporary food and dietary concerns. Chapters are organized thematically, making it easy to focus in on particular courses or types of dishes. These include influential ingredients, appetizers, main dishes, desserts, and street food, among others. The main text is supplemented by sidebars that offer interesting bite-sized facts, a chronology of important dates in Australian culinary history, and a glossary of key food- and dining-related terms.
