Subtleties of Australian cuisine

Australian cuisine is not original, but rather a combination of different cuisines of the world. But it was probably British cuisine that had the greatest influence on it, since the country was a colony of the British Empire for a long time. Numerous immigrants from other parts of the world have contributed to the formation of the national dishes of Australia.

Oddly enough, the most beloved product of Australians is vegemite paste, which is made on the basis of yeast extract. No Australian breakfast is complete without this spread. The locals are passionate about meat. It is eaten as a barbecue or topping for Australian meat pie. Seafood, which is in abundance here, is also held in high esteem. Desserts in Australia have a special cuisine page - Lamington biscuit, Pavlova cake, Anzac cookies, elven bread will please the sweet tooth.
