Since Nirmala Narine (talented author of In Nirmala's Kitchen) was a child growing up in Guyana, South America, she has focused on mingling the fragrant spices of her Indian roots with the bold flavors of the West Indies and South America. Nirmala has spent the past ten years traveling to spice plantations, local farms, and bustling marketplaces in search of exotic ingredients for her original recipes.
Bush tomatoes (akudjura) are actually berries native to Australia. Dark brown with a fruity caramel-like flavor and a slight tangy acidity, Australian bush tomatoes are hand-picked by the aboriginies in the Northern Territory of Australia, just as they've been for thousands of years. Add Australian Bush Tomatoes to enhance the flavors casseroles, beef stews, or wild game, or sprinkle it on focaccia, antipasto, and chutneys. It also works well as a coating for grilled swordfish, salmon, or tuna.
A novel and unusual seasoning!
