Australian native superfoods

Recently a conversation around what destroyed a piece of milling equipment at a manufacturer led me to the discovery of a Kakadu Plum.

A food ingredient I have never heard of. This led us to pulling together a list to get an idea of prices and uses as I wondered just how many other products I had not heard of before. Turns out quite a few.

In every case the equivalent native Australian food sells well above its closest substitute in price – but has a cache of being local and in some cases some unique properties and flavours.
