Fresh Australian Bush Herbs

After many attempts to make contact with bush foods suppliers over the internet, Tumbeela, from South Australia, not only responded with friendly and helpful emails, but came up with the goods very quickly. The herbs arrived looking like they have been picked only moments earlier: crisp, glossy green and full of aroma.

Mountain Pepper Leaf
"The leaf of this ancient Australian native shrub makes an exquisite culinary berb. For warm aromatic flavours sprinkle on meats, pasta, curries and vegetables toward the end of cooking."




Aniseed Myrtle
"This Australian native has a distinctive aniseed flavour. Great addition to pork or Asian style dishes or as a rub for BBQ chicken and fish. Use to flavour ice cream, custards or other desserts."



Lemon Myrtle Leaf
"The leaves of the lemon myrtle tree have a natural affinity with seafood, chicken or vegatable dishes calling for lime, lemon, or lemongrass. Sprinkle on food before grilling roasting or barbequing. Superb with stir fries or curries. Start off with a pinch and work up to taste."



The fresh bush herbs come in "Chef Packs" of 30-45 g each for a total of AUD$21.50 plus postage. Tumbeela also offer good quality dried quandongs for jams and sauces for AUD$50/kg plus postage.
