Contemporary Australian cuisine is a blend of cuisines from around the world, but with an emphasis on local ingredients, which means that you can find some amazing dishes that are unique to this part of Australia. The fusion of cuisines has led to a new style of cooking called “fusion food” or “modern Australian cuisine.” The food often has an Asian influence, but it also draws inspiration from other parts of the world as well.

A taste of Australia from its most distinctive cuisines
Australian cuisine is a blend of traditional British cuisine and indigenous Australian Aboriginal food, with Mediterranean and Asian influences. It has a reputation for being healthy and fresh, with an emphasis on local ingredients. The diversity of Australia’s climate, topography and its distance from other countries make it difficult to define a typical Australian dish; however, barbecues are popular across the country.
Australian food has been influenced by the native Aboriginal people as well as British settlers in the late 18th century when they arrived on the continent
Conclusion
Australia is a land of vast natural beauty and cultural diversity. We hope that this series will provide you with an understanding of the complex history behind Australia’s cuisine, as well as its future direction.
