In Australia there are lots and lots of Australian icons to enjoy. You'll find these on the supermarket shelves.
1) Vegemite
Vegemite has been around for about 80 years. Its got that very salty taste but put this with cheese and its great as a jaffle. It's very addictive for those that love salt.
2) Tim tams
It is one hundred years old and is still a favourite with the Aussie. These are the chocolate biscuits filled with chocolate cream and coated with Chocolate. Yum
3) Seafood
We love all sorts of seafoods such as mussels, clams etc.
4) The South Melbourne Market dim sim
This has been around for a very long time. This is the classic Asian dim sim which was invented in the early gold rush years. Stuffed with meat and cabbage this is a classic Australian favorite. You can have it steamed or fried;
5) Meat pies and sausage rolls
These are your four and twenty pies which are a favorite for the football goers in winter
6) Milo
Like Ovaltine this chcocolate drink is a favourite. You can have it hot or cold.
7) Pavalova
This is a meringue based dessert which is enjoyed by everyone at BBQ's or picnics. It is always topped with fruit and very sweet. You can buy the base at Coles and Woolworths (or Thomas Dux) and do it yourself
8) Lamington
Another one of our favourites. This is a cake coated in chocolate and coconut shavings. You can make this Aussie icon yourself.
9) ANZAC Biscuits
We love to make these and there is a Youtube video on making them here. It is a sweet, oat like biscuit.
